KUALA LUMPUR (Sin Chew Daily/ANN): I happened to meet Nurul Izzah Anwar (daughter of Malaysia's opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim) the other day, and apparently the focus of our chat had to be her father's audience with the King on Tuesday (Oct 13).

I cannot quote the conversation here, but I can sum up that Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim is not going to the Palace empty-handed this time, and he has indeed anticipated several possible consequences, although no conclusion can yet be drawn at this moment.
