Najib Abdul Razak said he was forced to skip Sultan Abdullah Ri'ayatuddin Al-Mustafa Billah Shah's coronation as the Yang di-Pertuan Agong at Istana Negara in Kuala Lumpur yesterday because he could not comply with an eleventh-hour instruction.
"It's not about confusion. I received a call at 6.30am informing me that the seating arrangements had changed.
"I was supposed to be on the 10th seat as a former prime minister according to the ceremonial protocol, but (my seat) was changed at the last minute to the seats for Orang Besar Pahang.
"The ceremonial robes for Orang Besar Pahang and former prime minister are different... At the time, I did not have time to collect my clothes from Pekan," he added in a Facebook post this morning.
