The Sultan of Perak, Sultan Nazrin Muizzuddin Shah, cautioned state dignitaries and advisers against concealing the public's grievances from the ruler or giving advice solely to appease those in power, according to reports. He emphasized the importance of honesty, integrity, and accountability in positions of authority, urging those close to the throne to speak the truth, even if it might be uncomfortable, and ensure the people's concerns reach the ruler.
