In his inaugural Royal Address at the opening of the First Meeting of the Third Session of the 15th Parliament on Monday, His Majesty said that all parties must accept the reality and respect the Unity Government that had been formed.
Sultan Ibrahim, who was installed as Malaysia’s 17th King on Jan 31, also stressed that if there were parties intending to play politics, they should wait for the upcoming election period.
