SHAH ALAM, Feb 24 — Sultan Selangor Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah Alhaj granted an audience to Housing and Local Government Minister Nga Kor Ming yesterday.

In a statement, The Housing and Local Government Ministry (KPKT) said that during the 90-minute audience, His Royal Highness decreed that all Malaysians remain united and join hands to revive the economy so the country is respected by the world.
