PETALING JAYA: The Malay Rulers are concerned that the unity and harmony in Malaysia are eroding as the nation faces an onslaught of racially controversial issues. "The Rulers are of the opinion that the damaging implications of such actions are more severe when they are erroneously associated with or committed in the name of Islam. He said the Malay Rulers appreciated the strong stance of Sultan of Johor and the Raja Muda of Perlis in condemning the Muslims-only laundrette as it demonstrated their commitment to ensuring Muslims behave with respect, moderation and inclusiveness. "(The Rukun Negara) must continue to serve as a compass to all parties, be they leaders, government officials and citizens of our country. "Unity among Malaysia's multi-ethnic and multi-religious people is key to ensuring the country's ongoing stability," he added.
