I am a certified subject of the Sultan of Selangor

I am the eleventh generation from the Yamtuan Muda Riau of the Johor-Riau Empire that also ruled over Selangor. And the crest and certificate below proves that I was a subject of the Sultan of Selangor before Selangor joined the other states to form the Federation of Malaya in 1957.

NO HOLDS BARRED

Raja Petra Kamarudin

The Government should revoke the citizenship of Malaysia Today editor Raja Petra Kamarudin, Cheras Umno division chairman Datuk Syed Ali Alhabshee said. He said the Government should revoke his citizenship as Raja Petra was no longer keen on staying here. Furthermore, his activities could affect peace in Malaysia, he said.

“Citizens who are not patriotic should not be given a place here. Raja Petra should be given appropriate punishment for what he has done,” he wrote in his blog umnobahagiancheras.blogspot.com.

Earlier reports indicated that Raja Petra is now in Britain.

Syed Ali also urged the Government to carry out investigations on corporate figures and private sectors financing Raja Petra. “If the Government fails to do so, it might give an impression that there are insiders who are in cahoots with Raja Petra. It is strange that the Government is slow in taking action against Raja Petra.” – The Star

*************************************************

The Cheras Umno division chairman, Datuk Syed Ali Alhabshee, has asked the government to revoke my citizenship. The Alhabshi family is originally from Ethiopia (Habsha in Arabic). So that makes him African and not Malay.

Now, maybe Syed Ali wants to know where my family came from.

Well, here goes. This is my family tree starting from the Yamtuan Muda Riau who was father to the First Sultan of Selangor.

So there you are. I am the eleventh generation from the Yamtuan Muda Riau of the Johor-Riau Empire that also ruled over Selangor. And the crest and certificate below proves that I was a subject of the Sultan of Selangor before Selangor joined the other states to form the Federation of Malaya in 1957.

According to the Federation Agreement that resulted in Selangor joining the Federation of Malaya, the government can’t revoke my citizenship. The Sultan of Selangor can, however, revoke my status as a subject of the Ruler of Selangor and if His Highness so wishes can also banish or exile me from the state of Selangor. Umno, however, can’t do a damn thing.

The crest above (our family crest) was given to my late father together with the certificate below by the late Sultan of Selangor and Second Agong of Malaysia.
