He called on all Malaysians, especially MPs, to unite to forge an"all-of-government" and"whole-of-society" war against the third wave of the Covid-19 pandemic. DAP vice-chair and former minister M. Kulasegaran tweeted:"Daulat Tuanku. Thank you for always being the people's King and doing what's best for the nation. A decision that comes as a relief to all Malaysians. Let's put aside politics and work to curb the spread of #COVIDー19 and focus on nation building."

Umno vice-president Khaled Nordin said the decision shows that the Federal Constitution should not be used arbitrarily. "I hope that politicians will focus entirely on the Budget. Prioritise the people. That is the main responsibility as a leader.""If this government is worried that the 2021 Budget may not be passed, thus causing PN to collapse, PN should hold talks with various parties so the budget will not be opposed," he said.Twitter user Pravin Snow posted:"Thank you beloved YDP Agong! Glad we, Rakyat have you as our shield of defense when the rest failed to protect us.
