(Illustration by Bernama) Despite the changing nature of society with the passing of time, the fundamental role of the king as a self-governing monarch remains unchanged in ensuring national stability and harmony, said Sultan Selangor. The royal institution takes on the responsibility of upholding the constitution, ensuring the continuity of the institution and symbolizing unity that transcends political differences. \"The royal institution provides stability in the face of change and reminds us that institutions that endure over time continue to play a crucial role in preserving national harmony,\" said the Sultan during a special interview marking the Sultan of Selangor's Golden Jubilee of the Government. The Sultan emphasized that the constitution provides clear guidelines on the responsibilities of the monarch. \"My responsibility is to serve the entire people of Selangor without discrimination or prejudice,\" he stated. The Sultan said that respecting the principles of constitutionalism, impartiality and fairness enables the royal institution to continue gaining the trust of the people regardless of their background or political views. According to the Sultan, the royal institution symbolizes continuity, stability, service and responsibility. \"It reminds us that leadership demands responsibility, not privilege,\" he said. The Sultan said that values of equality remain relevant due to their simplicity, unity and respect for the sovereignty of the law in building a harmonious society.",
