KUALA LUMPUR :A special meeting of the Council of Malay Rulers is expected to be held at the Istana Negara on Sunday (October 25) to discuss some of the proposals presented by the government, especially on the spread COVID-19.
According to a source, the special meeting is scheduled to start at 2.30 pm and will only involve the Council of Rulers.
The meeting is not expected to be attended by the Yang di-Pertua Negeri or any politician.
Quoting the source, the Yang di-Pertuan Agong Sultan Al-Abdullah Al-Mustafa Ri'ayatuddin Billah Shah has the right to declare a state of emergency but the matter would be discussed with the Malay Rulers.
It is understood that at least six sultans have already consented their attendance and all rulers are expected to attend the meeting.
Earlier, Istana Negara in a statement confirmed that the Yang di-Pertuan Agong received a briefing by the Prime Minister on the proposals reached by the Special Meeting of the Cabinet in Putrajaya yesterday.
Following that, His Majesty will hold talks with the Malay Rulers to discuss and study the proposals put forward by Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin.
According to the Comptroller of the Royal Household Istana Negara Datuk Indera Ahmad Fadil Shamsuddin, in the session which lasted for about an hour and a half in Istana Abdulaziz, Kuantan, Al-Sultan Abdullah was pleased to receive a briefing on the proposals reached by the Special Meeting of the Cabinet for consideration and consent of His Majesty for its implementation.
Yesterday, speculation was rife that the government would declare a state of emergency following the special meeting, which was reportedly also attended by the Chief of Defence Forces, General Tan Sri Affendi Buang.
