A statement from Istana Negara yesterday stated that Sultan Muhammad V was stepping down in accordance with Article 32(3) of the federal constitution but offered no reason for his abdication.

Was the marriage a red herring to cover up something else ?

the report said that the wedding was "the last straw that broke the camel's back". maybe there were other things too?

If its really the case where the King was advised to step down by the Rulers council than I am afraid its the council that is a bit backwards in today's time with regards to Royalties marriage as I would say most Malaysian would welcome whoever the King decides to be his Queen. In view there's no official statement made bounce to have various versions of theories of what actually took place and to give no explanation to the nation doesn't help.
