Wed, 13 Oct 2010 11:50 .KUALA LUMPUR: The Kelantan palace has revoked the datukship it conferred on Perkasa boss Ibrahim Ali, but the latter is not perturbed.
According to him, he still has two more Datukships from Selangor and Malacca.
Speaking to reporters in Parliament, Ibrahim said he learnt about the Kelantan palace's decision through the media this morning.
However, the Pasir Mas MP did not know the reason for this and had yet to receive an official letter regarding the palace's decision.
“I am not upset, I will keep fighting to uphold the Federal Constitution and the special position of the Malays,” he said, adding that he would not mind if people stopped addressing him as Datuk.
The Perkasa leader also claimed that his relationship with the Kelantan palace, which was rocked by a power squabble, was good.
The revocation of Ibrahim’s datukship came several days after he visited the former Sultan of Kelantan Tuanku Ismail Petra.
After Friday's visit, Ibrahim told the media that the former Sultan was glad to see him.
The palace had lso stripped Wan Hashim Wan Daud, the private secretary to the former ruler, of his Datukship as well - FMT
