00:00The Sultan of Pahang, Al-Sultan Abdullah Ri'ayatuddin Al-Mustafa Billah Shah attended the 120th meeting of the Pahang Council of Regency on Monday,
00:10where he stressed that the power to grant royal pardons must not be regarded as a political gift or an act of personal sympathy.
00:17Instead, Al-Sultan Abdullah said the power of pardon, provided under the federal constitution,
00:21is a legitimate constitutional mechanism that serves as a final consideration in a justice system that is punitive in nature.
00:30Pengurangan hukuman ini ialah sesekali memadamkan sabitan lakamu,
00:37tidak menghapuskan rekod kesalahan dan tidak pernah membatalkan krisis tergabungkan hendak-hendak.
00:45Malah pengabunan dan pengurangan hukuman ini bukan eksklusif pada satu nama, satu parti, tetap satu pendudukan.
00:56Setiap tahun, ratusan banduan penjara daripada pelbagai lakar belakang, termasuk kes jenayah berat dan bengang,
01:08menerima pengurangan atau pengampunan daripada yang kawan Agong, Bagi Rata Melayu dan juga Kawan Agong.
01:16Al-Sultan Abdullah also said in the tradition of constitutional monarchy,
01:29the ruler is neither an instrument of public sentiment nor subject to political pressure,
01:46but serves as a canopy of justice that can calm tensions when emotions run high
01:51and restore balance when loud voices attempt to monopolize the truth.
