Posted on April 26, 2019March 8, 2020 by Lim Wei Jiet

A storm is brewing in the Southern State of Johor. There are reports suggesting that the palace is unhappy with Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia (PPBM)’s choice of Chief Minister. Tun Mahathir, who is head of PPBM, is not pulling any punches.

What is the role of the monarchy in the appointment of Chief Minister? Do they have a say? I explore the constitutional principles surrounding this issue.
