Kuala Lumpur: The Government will continue to implement policies aimed at ensuring the well-being of the people, including addressing challenges related to the cost of living, said Communications Minister Fahmi Fadzil.

He said this commitment aligns with the decree issued by His Majesty Sultan Ibrahim, the 17th King of Malaysia, which calls for the Government to continue efforts to alleviate the people’s burden.

“We are dedicated to upholding His Majesty’s decree, particularly in addressing the cost of living, a matter close to Sultan Ibrahim’s heart. For the Government, this remains a top priority,” he said.

Fahmi said this to reporters after the Installation Ceremony of Sultan Ibrahim as the nation’s 17th King at Istana Negara, Saturday.

In his royal address, Sultan Ibrahim expressed hope for the Government to sustain its efforts to alleviate the public’s burden and advance the country’s progress and prosperity.

Reflecting on Saturday’s historical event, Fahmi, who also chairs the Special Committee for the King’s Installation Events, said this momentous and pivotal occasion for the country and the people was executed seamlessly.

He said the installation ceremony underscored the vital role of the Yang di-Pertuan Agong institution as the foundation of the nation, safeguarding the welfare of the people and fostering a conducive environment for the Government to implement policies benefiting the public.
