JOHOR BARU: Johor's Sultan Ibrahim Ibni Almarhum Sultan Iskandar wants certain quarters to stop meddling in matters concerning the state.

His Majesty said he was currently overseas but was following developments in Malaysia and Johor in particular.

"I want certain quarters to stop making noise and fighting about politics and focus on efforts to take care of the nation instead.

"On matters concerning Johor, do no try to meddle into state affairs as this is a sovereign state that still has a Sultan.

"I will make the best decision for the people when the time comes," Sultan Ibrahim said in a statement posted on his Facebook page on Wednesday (April 10).
