KUALA LUMPUR – The Sultan of Johor, Sultan Ibrahim Sultan Iskandar, has been elected as the next king of Malaysia, effective January 31, 2024.
The result of the election by the Conference of Rulers was reportedly expected to be announced by Tan Sri Syed Danial Syed Ahmad, the Keeper of the Rulers’ Seal this evening, but has apparently been made public much earlier.
Bernama also reported that Sultan Nazrin Shah of Perak has been elected as deputy Yang di-Pertuan Agong, effective the same date.
Sultan Nazrin thus retained the post he has held since December 2016.
