"In his book “Constitutional Monarchy, Rule of Law and Good Governance” (2004), the former Lord President wrote:“Under normal circumstances, it is taken for granted that the Yang di-Pertuan Agong would not withhold his consent to a request for dissolution of parliament. His role is purely formal.”He also pointed out that no sultan or agung had withheld consent to dissolve legislative body, except in Kelantan in 1977.
Deja vu? People may now frown upon the royal family with changed views."
