This year's new king of Malaysia, Johor Sultan Ibrahim, has been sworn in as the new king.
At the age of 65, he is the 25th Sultan of Johor and the 17th Supreme Head of State of Malaysia.
Unlike the hereditary constitutional monarchies of other countries in the world,
Malaysia has a unique system in which the king is elected in turn from among the nine major families in Malaysia.
On Wednesday, January 31, 2024, the swearing-in ceremony of the 17th King of Malaysia was held at the National Palace in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and the Sultan of Johor Ibrahim signed the document.
The ceremony was completed in the presence of members of the royal family, Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim and members of the Cabinet.
His title is His Majesty King Ibrahim, Sultan of Malaysia.
If you take a closer look at the new king of Malaysia, you will see that he has a half-breed appearance.
Because his mother was an Englishman, born in Cornwall.
It is the Duchy where Queen Camilla of England previously held her title, the Duchy of Cornwall.
The new king was born into a hereditary family and came from a very privileged family.
And his style of life is relatively high-profile, with many luxury cars.
In particular, he also has a pink Rolls-Royce.
He also loves to ride motorcycles.
I like to be close to the people.
is also because he is more down-to-earth, so the outside world expects that he will be related to the welfare of the people after he takes office.
The new king is of mixed Malaysian + British descent, and the new queen is also of mixed race.
The new queen is Raja Zarith Sofiah with the title of Her Majesty Queen Raja Chari Sofiah of Malaysia.
She was one year younger than the king's husband, and the two had five sons and one daughter.
Born in 1959, Queen Raja Chari Sofia is a graduate student at Oxford University.
She studied Chinese literature there.
When she first went to England to study, she attended a reception at Buckingham Palace, so she met the Queen of England when she was 18 years old.
For a long time, there has been a relationship between the two royal families.
In 2017, when Charles and Camilla visited Asia, Her Majesty Sofia accompanied Camilla on the visit.
The husband is of English descent, and here Her Majesty Sophia is also of foreign descent.
Her grandmother is a native of China with the surname Zhang.
As one of Malaysia's many royal families, Her Majesty Sophia has never shied away from her Chinese background.
Instead, he responded emotionally to his family's mixed-race background: "One thing I can be sure of is that my grandmother and I are both Malaysian, and my children, even if they are mixed-race, are all Malaysians like me!"
Behind high EQ is high IQ.
Her Majesty Sophia speaks 5 languages, including Bahasa Malaysia, English, Mandarin, Italian and French.

In contrast, the new queen is more low-key.
Passionate about philanthropy.
And have a lot of their own ideas.
She prefers to support charitable organizations that support niche groups rather than well-known ones.
When meeting with the recipients, I am informal and often sit on the floor with them.
She supports end-of-life care and hopes to improve the level of care that people provide.
As for the family, she also maintains it very well, and the children are relatively close to her.
