The NGO says Home Minister Muhyiddin Yassin's claim of interference on the youth age limit is serious.

Johor Menteri Besar Dr Sahruddin Jamal and exco member Sheikh Umar Bagharib Ali must respond to the allegation of royal interference in amending the youth age limit, says NGO Dewan Muda Johor.in the matter following the state government's pirouette on the issue.“It must be backed with facts. Don't make accusations and wild speculations just because it can indirectly soil the name of the Johor palace,” he added in a statement.

He said the home minister's remark was made in bad faith following the Sahrudding and Sheikh Umar's audience with Johor Crown Prince Tunku Ismail Sultan Ibrahim. "In fact, prior to the audience, there was already an outcry due to conflicting statements made by the menteri besar on July 8 to retain the youth age cap at 40, and Sheikh Umar's statement on July 9 that it will be 30 years old," he said.

"This is proven through their final media statement by Sheikh Umar on the night of July 9 that the state government's decision was made after discussions and advice from stakeholders on issues of youth in Johor," he said.
