Post GE15: Be rational, we need to move forward - Agong

Yang di-Pertuan Agong Al-Sultan Abdullah Ri'ayatuddin Al-Mustafa Billah Shah said he will analyse the support by parties or coalitions in the formation of a new government post-15th general elections.

He also expressed his hope for the people of Malaysia to be patient while he makes this decision regarding the formation of a government very soon.

"I have just returned, now I will look into the supports by each political party and coalition before I make a decision."

He also urged for Malaysia to move forward and accept whatever decision made by the people, the people's representatives as well as by His Majesty himself.

"We must be patient, accept the people's choice, accept the choices of politicians and accept the decision of the King.

"Be rational and we have to move on, we must move forward in the name of our beloved country," he said.

Yesterday, His Majesty consented to extend the time for political parties to form a government until 2.00 pm on Tuesday.

This would allow for parties to discuss and decide on an MP with the majority support to be appointed as the 10th Prime Minister.
