'But before the election, there were some specific demands that he made that I couldn’t fulfill. The demands were political in nature .....' said Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman

that the Crown Prince was “someone whom I was close to, especially before the 14th General Election.

After the election, we met up twice. There were also some specific demands made which I could not fulfill. Because I personally believe in not interfering in business and bringing demands which may rattle the sports scene.” Datuk Zaiton and I had to seek an audience with Tunku Ismail. This was something I could not defend,” the Youth and Sports Minister told journalists.

He added that as much as he looked up to the Crown Prince as someone from the royal family of Johor, his ultimate loyalty and priority is the people.
