KUALA LUMPUR: Yang di-Pertuan Agong Al-Sultan Abdullah Ri’ayatuddin Al-Mustafa Billah Shah will be consulting the Malay Rulers on the proposal raised by Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin yesterday.
Comptroller of the Royal Household for Istana Negara Datuk Ahmad Fadil Shamsuddin said the King understands the need for continuity in the country’s administration in the fight against the third wave of the Covid-19 pandemic that hit many parts of the country.
Ahmad Fadil said the Yang di-Pertuan Agong is also concern about the anxiety and exasperation among the people following the latest developments.
“Following the session yesterday, Al-Sultan Abdullah has agreed to consult fellow Malay Rulers at Istana Negara soon to discuss and deliberate the proposal raised by Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin,” said Ahmad Fadil in a statement this morning.
The King, he said, also called on the people to remain calm, not panic and stay patient in facing the latest developments pending a decision on the proposals by the prime minister.
It is learnt that during his meeting with the Yang di-Pertuan Agong at Istana AbdulAziz in Indera Mahkota, Kuantan yesterday, Muhyiddin had proposed for a declaration of emergency which entails the prorogation of Parliament.
The Third Term of the 14th Dewan Rakyat session is supposed to convene for 27 days from Nov 2 until Dec 15.
The Yang di-Pertuan Agong may declare a state of emergency under Article 150(1) of the Federal Constitution if a major emergency to the security or economic life or public order in the federation or any part thereof (has) existed.
Under Article 150(2), the King may also make an emergency proclamation if he is satisfied that the threat of a major emergency to national security, or the economic life or public order is almost true.
Three grounds can be used by the Yang di-Pertuan Agong to make a declaration of emergency, that is if it is a threat to national security; economic life; or public order.
Article 55 of the Federal Constitution stipulates that only His Majesty The King can summon for Parliament to be in session. His Majesty also has the absolute power to prorogue or dissolve the Parliament.
