1. I was browsing through the Federal Constitution when suddenly I found the incongruity of the provision under Article 33A.

2. It reads as follows: “Yang di-Pertuan Agong shall cease to exercise the functions of the Yang di-Pertuan Agong if charged with an offence”.

3. It is obvious that being charged with an offence is so serious that a person such as the Yang di-Pertuan Agong would cease to exercise the functions of the Yang di-Pertuan Agong.

4. It does not say that he would have to be found guilty before His Majesty ceases to exercise his function. Being charged is clearly serious enough for the constitution to prescribe the cessation of his function.

5. Now, what about a lesser functionary such as a Deputy Prime Minister. He has been charged with over 40 charges. Yet he is appointed a Deputy Prime Minister and continues to hold that post.

6. Is the DPM a more senior functionary that he should be better treated than the Yang di-Pertuan Agong?

7. There is a need for Reform here, me thinks.

8. Okay. I will look after my grandchildren now. Just ignore this.
