Sultan of Johor speaks his mind


No holds barred: Sultan Ibrahim speaking to Wong (right) and Benjamin about his vision for the state during an exclusive interview at Istana Bukit Serene, Johor Baru.

JOHOR BARU: Johor ruler Sultan Ibrahim Ibni Almarhum Sultan Iskandar moved into Istana Bukit Serene weeks ago from Istana Pasir Pelangi and the interview with The Star was at the new official residence overlooking Singapore.

Driving up the road leading to the palace, it was amazing to see several huge cages on both sides, with tigers, panthers and cats inside them.
