Sultan Selangor kecewa salah urus TH, muak politik keterlaluan

Sultan Selangor, Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah, has expressed disappointment over the misuse of the Hajj Fund Organization (TH) and expressed tiredness with the politicization that does not yield results. The Sultan reminded that the TH was established to assist Muslims in Malaysia in saving for Hajj, and any misuse or allegations of misuse are not appropriate.

He emphasized that the management of funds intended for religious purposes should be based on accountability and responsibility, and that the same principle applies to houses of worship of all religions and orphanages.

The Sultan urged Selangor's politicians to focus on serving the people, driving economic growth, and maintaining unity for the state to maintain its position as one of the leading states in the country. He expressed tiredness with over-political activities that do not bring results. Sultan Sharafuddin stated that there is no place for politics that exploits religious and ethnic issues or incites the royal institution into political conflict.

He acknowledged that the strength of Selangor has always been its people, and that the state thrives due to its diverse community of religions, cultures, and traditions that have lived, worked, and enjoyed prosperity together since time immemorial.

The Sultan reminded politicians to avoid making sensitive statements that could offend others and to think before speaking, always being cautious. He urged them to remain impartial, respectful, and responsible. He emphasized that the success of Selangor and Malaysia is based on diversity, stability, and unity, which are the main factors contributing to the state's success.

He advised all political leaders to prioritize the people's interests over political interests. He highlighted that the uniqueness of Selangor's diversity should be seen as a major competitive advantage rather than a cause of division. He urged politicians from all parties to put the people's interests first, uphold the Constitution's provisions, respect the position of Islam as the national religion, maintain the rights of other religious followers to practice their faith in a peaceful and harmonious manner, and uphold the simplicity that has been the foundation of Selangor for a long time.
