KUALA LUMPUR – Yang di-Pertuan Agong Al-Sultan Abdullah Ri’ayatuddin Al-Mustafa Billah Shah and Raja Permaisuri Agong Tunku Hajah Azizah Aminah Maimunah Iskandariah extended their 2023 New Year’s greetings and offered their prayers for the well-being of the people as well as peace and harmony for the country.

The greetings from the king and queen were uploaded on Istana Negara’s official Facebook.

“May the people throughout the country be blessed with good health, wealth, prosperity and be protected from any type of disaster,” said the king and queen in their message.

This year’s celebrations which were initially planned to be held at Dataran Merdeka here tonight were called off by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim due to floods in several states and in consideration of issues faced by the people.

New Year’s Eve celebrations will be replaced by a prayer programme with the prime minister at the Putra Mosque in Putrajaya starting at about 6.30pm today. – Bernama, December 31, 2022
