Reading between the lines... no, it was clear as crystal, which side Tuanku is on despite proclaiming that Rulers are above politics.
From The Star:
Rulers are above politics: Sultan Azlan Shah (Update) (excerpts):
KUALA KANGSAR: Rulers are above politics and as such they cannot participate in open debates to answer allegations hurled against them by political groups, said Sultan of Perak Sultan Azlan Shah on Sunday.
He said the actions of certain political groups in provoking the people and sowing seeds of hatred against the rulers was akin to fanning “embers in the chaff” which, he said, was a dangerous act and could destroy the peace enjoyed by the people and the country.
“These groups are allowing the end to justify the means by condoning such acts.
“These groups and individuals feel that they are faultless and immune from any action, to the extent of disregarding the law for the sake of attaining power,” he said at the loyalty pledge and Perak awards ceremony in conjunction with his 81st birthday at the Istana Iskandariah here Sunday.
…
Raja Nazrin resolute in defending monarchy from ridicule (excerpts):
KUALA KANGSAR: The Raja Muda of Perak Raja Dr Nazrin Shah today said he would implement all efforts to ensure the institution of royalty, which was core to the system of governance and nationhood in the country, would continue to be protected.
“An offspring will not allow the dignity and sovereignty of a ruler to be ridiculed.
As such the people must be conscious not to be hasty to throw the lamp away, as daylight too will end.
“Let it not be that as night falls, people grope about directionless, blanketed in darkness without a lamp,” he said at the pledging of loyalty and awards ceremony in conjunction with the 81st birthday of the Sultan of Perak Sultan Azlan Shah at Istana Iskandariah here Sunday.
…
“Actions of insulting institutions, ridiculing institutions, fermenting hatred towards institutions are early steps in the movement towards abolishing the institutions therefore abolishing the original identity of the country’s race.”
…
The following would seem like a rebuttal of the above:
