1. Introduction: DYMM Sultan Nazrin Muizzuddin Shah was installed as the 35th Sultan of Perak on Wednesday May 6, 2015 at Iskandariah Palace in Kuala Kangsar, in a ceremony that was steeped in tradition of the Perak Malay sultanate. DYMM Sultan Nazrin is close to my heart as I have been following a few of his public lectures and very impressed with his intellectual discourses, and his involvement with many activities for the betterment of the rakyat, which win their hearts. He has been reported to have reminded, from time to time, the State administration to implement projects that will benefit the people. Among the issues he has highlighted include:
education, poverty eradication, availability of regular supply of clean water, sustainable development and greening the State, provision of affordable homes. He has written articles and delivered keynote addresses covering a wide range of topics on Islam, Nation Building, Finance, Constitution Monarchy.
2. Background : DYMM Sultan Nazrin was born on November 1956 and had his primary and secondary education at St. John's Institution in Kuala Lumpur, completing his secondary education at the Leys School in Cambridge. HRH pursued his tertiary education at University of Oxford where he obtained his degree in Philosophy, Politics and Economics and at Harvard University, USA where he was conferred a Ph. D in Political Economy and Government. HRH has also been elected to serve on a number of honorary organisations, among them are: Honorary Fellow of Worcester College, University of Oxford; Hon. Fellow of Magdalene College of University of Cambridge; member Board of Trustees of the Oxford Centre for Islamic Studies; Royal Fellow of the Institute of Defense and Security; Royal Fellow of the Institute of Strategic and International Studies; Royal Fellow of the Institute of Public Security of Malaysia; Royal Patron of the Malaysian International Islamic Financial Centre; 4th Chancellor of University of Malaya; Colonel-in-Chief of the of the Regiment of Royal Engineers and the Royal Medical Corps of the Malaysian Armed Forces. On the international front, HRH has been appointed by the United Nations to co-chair the UN High-Level Panel on Humanitarian Financing. HRH married Raja Permaisuri Perak Tuanku Zara Salim in May 2007 and the royal couple is blessed with two children: Raja Azlan Muzzaffar Shah, who was born on March 14, 2008 and Raja Nazira Safya Shah, on August 2, 2011.
3. Highlights of HRH Installation Address. In the opening remark, HRH solicited the protection and guidance of Allah in ruling the State and indicated that it is the duty of the Ruler to protect the sovereignty of the State and that the emergence of an enlightened era in an administration is when when leaders hold respect for religious leaders and scholars who have the courage to voice out their rights and firmly opposed untruths. Guided by such leaders, a Ruler is protected from going astray. HRH Sultan Nazrin emphasised that the royal institution is not a ceremonial ornament but the Federal Constitution provides for Constitutional Monarchy in the country, detailing the roles and responsibilities of the Rulers. Accordingly, the Ruler must be vibrant, dynamic and confident in fulfilling his role as the unifying figure in a political landscape , which increasingly is showing signs of cracks in the racial and religious harmony. He went on to highlight that the powers of the Ruler is governed by the law and thus he has to abide by Islamic guidelines which provide for checks and balances, to ensure justice, the importance of Day of Judgement. He concluded his address with the prayer that Allah will protect the State and the people. Amin..amin
