A MALAYSIAKINI REPORT:QUOTING BERNAMA:
The Sultan of Perak, Sultan Azlan Shah, said the ills and misery in the world today were largely due to individuals who succumbed to their desires when entrusted with power.
The sultan said there had been many examples in history where such individuals got lost in their own power greed and ultimately fell in disgrace.
Speaking at the 4th convocation of Kolej Islam Darul Ridzuan (Kisdar) in Kuala Kangsar today, Sultan Azlan said the success achieved by every individual was a gift from God for his or her effort in acquiring knowledge to face the challenges ahead.
"The bigger test in a person's life is when one is given a high position, post or rank or power, but many fail at this stage.
"When they are 'intoxicated' by their own power, they feel they are always right and others, wrong.
"They think they are wiser and smarter than others, so they listen to no advice and accept no reproach, but view it negatively and even as an attempt to undermine their power.
"These people are too small to be pompous and arrogant. What they need is guidance from the teachers and elders and revelation from God."
The sultan also said that any area of knowledge mastered should fill one with the realisation that many more needed to be learned.
On the Kisdar graduands, Sultan Azlan said each of them must have attributes such as trustworthiness, truthfulness, wisdom and the willingness to pass on knowledge to mirror the spirit of Islam.
A total of 239 graduands received their diplomas in usuluddin (theology), Islamic banking and finance, and Arab literature at the convocation ceremony.

Just like all those swindlers & conmen in history, guess one or 2 more doesn't make a difference, even if they now come from Perak.
Afterall look at our esteemed Prime Minister. He breeds them
Hahaha!....isn't this country great?
Did the Sultan of Perak say all that? My goodness! He is so prophetic! Ah! but wait, do I not remember an incident like this happen a couple of years ago that spelled of someone succumbing to his desires ahead of the rakyat. I guess the old saying is true. Wisdom comes with experience!!!
Is this peh-moh for real? Wait let me go and throw up first...
I guess as some of us grow older, our hide grows thicker as well. Some might even wanna hide behind the excuse of mental infirmity and pretend they cannot remember anything about what happened in one's own state not so long ago.
Anyway, if he had gone into semi retirement or went into retreat to write his biography instead of preaching, we might just forget about his misdeeds towards the people after a decade or so. But after reading what the pretender said, I can only wish him 'long life' just so he could live to witness the bad karma of his actions. Da ulat Tuanku.
Ya right he should know. Thanks to him, Gamuda is now racking in billions from projects dished out by Najib.
zorrow,
Thanks ALOT to remind us about this Pak moi. We love hating this guy for what he did to us Perakians! Nothing is gonna change our HATRED for him till ETERNITY!
Last time you guys put the Sultan of Perak on a high pedestal.
Full of praises like he's a wise learned judge, etc, etc.
Now you guys find everything bad about him.
Neat yah. This change of heart is because of Nizar's stupidity manipulated by the infamous Nga and Ngeh.
Stupid is as stupid does.
When he wrote the speech, the sultan must be looking at the mirror and saw the image of the great mamak of Kerala!....they both look alike!
The thief who cried "Thief!!! Thief".
[..."attributes such as trustworthiness, truthfulness, wisdom and the willingness to pass on knowledge to mirror the spirit of Islam. ]
Not nice being caught in a time trap! And eating roti in the wrong halal shop.
Wei! ... pass the gravy over. Don't lick off everything yourself!
Ada orang mau puasa sudah ! Next month !
This "fancy dressed" monarch was rubbing salt into the wound! Indirectly, he was telling the Perakians, you can stuff it up your ass!
Nobody esp most Perakians will not listen to him and his sibling anymore since that power grab fiasco by BN/UMNO.
Just wait for GE13 and we will see who is talking rubbish
This is rubbing salt into our wounds! Perakians have a long memory and we will not forget how we were sold. Long live the Rakyat!
True, since the Perak powergrab, Perak is a total disgrace today - a failed state full of greedy power- intoxicated 'wishy-washy' characters - (a term used by one anonymouse on this blog) who lack self-worth moral conduct to choose right from wrong!
Words are cheap - according to charlie chaplin...
but to live what one can easily preach is another matter.
However, if one does the opposite of what oneself preaches and got caught and still continue to preach.. that - is really unfathomable.
Gamuda!
"..STILL SORE? "
- Wrong word used! Perakians have gone beyond that; anger has been building up, can't wait for GE-13 to bury BN!
The wisdom of a ruler
Unless he preaches what he says
Else he is just fishing
On the sea
Every body can say
The truth of many things
Yet when it falls on the leaders
They will do the no entry way
Surely history has taught us
We read about the past leaders
What they had done and contributed
In the world once they lived
It is sad the ruler forgot
What he did in his State
The people he forgets....
Do the right things he allegedly never did!
I am from Klang Valley
I voted in the State for the elections
I still feel sore even till today
Call the election now
We will tell them how
The people wants must be respected
No government or ruler should ever forget
Through the ballot boxes
The people decide
Win or lose is their decision
For the government of the day
yes...as a Perakian, i'm STILL SORE! how could such an educated gentleman turn into another UMNO-sorry-excuse-of-a-human-being???
30 comments and mostly from chinky chauvinists hardly make up a sample of the big state of perak
Hahaha.....Is he talking about himself ?
Power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely.
Didn't it happened in the Silver State last year ?
Hello "Saya Tak Nnak"
So, why is your BN side not willing to hold statewide elections in the
big state of Perak?
Afraid of losing very badly??
Saya Tak Nak
Sooo true. I am a Perakian and I am happy with Zambri.
So are many many Perakians.
These kiasus Chigkies, what do they know.
NgaNga dan teseNgeh je la.
This fler crack better jokes than David Letterman...
LOL!!!
Hello Saya Tak Mamak & Pee-pee,
Why don't both of you pee into each other's mouth and then tell us how your pee taste? On second thought, not necessary to tell us the taste of your pee because you both already smell like cow pee through the internet.
once a shit, forever a stinking shit. that's him... whoever that is!
The words of Truth is in the scriptures of every religions.The Truth is complete in everyway and there is no need to heed other sources.Let us all return enmasse to our respective religion.
This is the solution for our problem and in fact all problems of the world.
Ha Ha.
We see in the crime movies/TV shows that the one that looks and sounds innocent would eventually end up to be the real criminal. That's reality on TV.
Hello Zorro
Are you involved in the Blog and Social Meia Conference?
Anon806pm...no lah,
Barisan Rakyat Bloggers maybe don't qualify for obvious reasons. Its OK, we continue to work for a better Malaysia.
I heard that TDM was keynote speaker, yah!?
well.. that's royalty to us lol.. just wondering what will happen if opposition manage to form government,will BN step aside and leave a note saying, "well its your turn now and good luck" or "FUCK U.. WANT TO RULE? over my dead body, you motherless piece of shit", if that happen how??? and they start doing things like what Burma did,are we gonna be freedom fighter? ya.. i know it sound negative .. Hey !! this is MALAYSIA after all,you never know..
Saya Tak Nak and Pee Pee both got brain damage after BTN indoctrination.
It is very strange that the Bloggers and Social Media conference did not feature prominent bloggers like you and your gang.
Anon843pm. This same concern was voiced by a royalty friend of mine. I told him ONLY THE KING AND ROYAL FAMILIES CAN PREVENT THIS! ONLY THE KING CAN DECLARE EMERGENCY RULE.
