  "account": "On October 17, a subtle message was shared regarding incidents involving State Rulers and potential State Ministers who were not in harmony. The sharer, Hafiz Hassan, cited remarks made by the late Sultan Azlan Shah, who was a High Court Judge, Chief Justice of Malaya, Lord President of the Federal Court, and later became the Sultan of Perak and Yang di-Pertuan Agong of Malaysia. These remarks were intended for those with discerning eyes. The current situation involving Menteri Besar Datuk Ismail Lasim and Yang Dipertuan Besar of Negeri Sembilan, Tuanku Muhriz Tuanku Munawir, highlights the message shared in the past incidents. The message emphasizes that when the palace and executive are not on good terms, remedial action should be taken by political elites. This perspective is the personal opinion of Hafiz Hassan and does not necessarily reflect the views of Malay Mail. A Facebook screenshot shows the open rebuke of Menteri Besar Ismail Lasim by Yang Dipertuan Besar Tuanku Muhriz, who responds with a traditional gesture of respect.",
