Following
his father's recent criticism against the former Perak MB, Johor Crown
Prince Tunku Ismail Sultan Ibrahim said he felt saddened that a slew
of criticism made against the royalty were committed by Malays.
Johor Crown Prince Tunku Ismail Sultan Ibrahim, in a Twitter posting yesterday, expressed his sadness and regret that a slew of criticisms made against the royalty were committed by Malays, saying, “I feel saddened and regretful. Why are the Malays the only ones are trying to overthrow the royalty?”
Also, he asked why other races did not waste time making critical statements on the rulers and were more focused on succeeding in life.
The 28-year-old prince also implied that Malays would be sidelined should Malaysia do away with royalty, saying, "I would like to see what will happen to the Malays if our beloved country becomes like Singapore. If there is hardship, don't be busy looking for a king then."
He ended the five-line posting by urging people to stop daydreaming and learn to appreciate what they had.
The prince's tweet came days after his father, Sultan Ibrahim ibni Almarhum Sultan Iskandar (right) expressed unhappiness over former Perak menteri besar Mohammad Nizar Jamaluddin's recent criticism on the ruler's RM520,000 purchase of the WWW1 car number plate.

The world and its systems have changed - politically, economically etc. I'm sure the Johor Crown Prince knows that very well. Otherwise, he won't be Twitter-ing to his subjects.
Maybe Johor Crown Prince has forgotten that the person who started the 'Daulat Rakyat' movement is also famous for his 'Melayu mudah lupa' statement.
