KUALA KANGSAR, Oct 29 — The Sultan of Perak, Sultan Nazrin Shah, has warned members of the Dewan Negara Perak and dignitaries of the Royal Court against misusing the Ruler’s name, royal influence and their titles for personal gain, financial profit or business opportunities.

His Royal Highness also urged them not to allow themselves to be used to assist parties in an improper or questionable manner, or to exert undue pressure on anyone.

“Shun corruption, the abuse of power and any conduct that might give rise to suspicion or tarnish the reputation of the throne and the Royal Court.

“Never allow your position to become a means of seeking special privileges, accumulating personal wealth or interfering in matters beyond the scope of your responsibilities,” he decreed at the 175th Meeting of Dewan Negara Perak at Istana Iskandariah here today.
