King's warning shows title recipients are not above the law: Fahmi
Communications Minister Fahmi Fadzil welcomed the Agong’s warning that he would withdraw federal awards, medals, and honours from recipients who are involved in crime, tarnished the country’s image, or were punished by the courts.
Fahmi said Sultan Ibrahim Sultan Iskandar’s reminder shows that His Majesty wants the recipients of such honours to keep their integrity intact all the time and avoid involvement in criminal activities, especially corruption.
