Yang-di Pertuan Agong Sultan Ibrahim Sultan Iskandar has called on all parties to stop taking advantage of the issue related to the socks with the word 'Allah' as the matter was now going through the legal process.

"I have instructed that relevant action be taken according to the law and there is no need for anyone to continue fuelling the people's anger.

"Action is being taken not just to punish, but to serve as a lesson and reminder to everyone to safeguard the sensitivities of all Malaysians," the King said today.

He said it was better for society to learn from this incident and work towards enhancing greater unity.

"Persistent anger will not benefit anyone. All quarters, especially community leaders must act with maturity.

"Guide the people towards ensuring unity and not disunity. This is an opportunity to foster greater understanding among each other in our diverse society and ensure such incidents do not recur, added Sultan Ibrahim. - The Vibes, March 27, 2024
