Sultan Sharafuddin calls for AI training, responsible social media use, geriatric care for Selangor’s future

In a recent interview marking his Silver Jubilee celebrations, Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah of Selangor emphasized the importance of developing knowledgeable, compassionate, and united future generations while fostering respect for Malaysia's diversity.

He highlighted the need for environmental sustainability, heritage preservation, and adaptability to technological advancements, urging young people to be well-informed and socially responsible.

The Sultan also stressed preparing for demographic shifts by prioritizing elderly care, proposing the establishment of a dedicated geriatric medical center in Selangor.

He advocated for development and conservation as mutually reinforcing goals and called for education to be the foundation of progress.

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 24 — The Sultan of Selangor hopes future generations of Selangorians will be knowledgeable, compassionate, resilient, united and respectful of others.

His Royal Highness Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah said young people should strive for excellence without losing their sense of responsibility towards society.

“They should also understand that diversity is one of Malaysia’s greatest strengths. Mutual respect and understanding will remain essential to our continued harmony and progress,” he said in a special interview held in conjunction with his Silver Jubilee celebrations.

The Selangor ruler also advised young people to read news reports in depth before commenting, particularly on social media, rather than forming opinions based solely on headlines.

Sultan Sharafuddin said the younger generation had rightly placed importance on environmental sustainability and heritage preservation.

“Economic progress should never come at the expense of our natural environment or historical identity.

“Planning for future generations means protecting forests, rivers and green spaces while preserving our historical landmarks and cultural traditions. Development and conservation are not opposing goals; they should reinforce one another,” he said.

His Royal Highness also noted that education remained the foundation of long-term progress, particularly in preparing young people for a rapidly changing world.

“Artificial intelligence may not replace all jobs, but in many instances, people who are trained in AI will replace those who are not.

“Selangor must not lose out in this area. We must be ready for this, and I hope the state government realises it,” he said.

Sultan Sharafuddin also cautioned that the well-being of senior citizens must not be overlooked as Selangor moves towards becoming an ageing society.

The Sultan said healthcare services must evolve alongside demographic changes, while innovation should continue to strengthen the state’s competitiveness.

His Royal Highness proposed that Selangor strive to become the first state to establish a dedicated geriatric medical centre specialising in the health, care, prevention and treatment of conditions affecting older adults.

These include age-related problems such as falls, frailty, urinary incontinence and memory decline.

“We need to prioritise the overall quality of life of the elderly, including their safety, independence and balanced medication,” he added. — Bernama

在最近一次庆祝登基25周年银禧纪念的采访中，雪​​兰莪苏丹沙拉夫丁·伊德里斯·沙阿强调了培养有知识、有同情心、团结的未来一代的重要性，同时培养对马来西亚多样性的尊重。

他强调了环境可持续性、遗产保护和适应技术进步的必要性，并敦促年轻人要见多识广、有社会责任感。

苏丹还强调要优先考虑老年人护理，为应对人口结构变化做好准备，并提议在雪兰莪州建立专门的老年医疗中心。

他主张发展与保护是相辅相成的目标，并呼吁以教育为进步的基础。

吉隆坡，10月24日讯——雪兰莪苏丹希望雪兰莪未来的子孙后代能够博学多识、富有同情心、坚韧不拔、团结一致、尊重他人。

苏丹沙拉夫丁·伊德里斯·沙阿殿下表示，年轻人应该在追求卓越的同时，不丧失对社会的责任感。

“他们也应该明白，多元化是马来西亚最大的优势之一。相互尊重和理解对于我们持续的和谐与进步至关重要，”他在庆祝登基25周年银禧纪念的特别采访中说道。

雪兰莪州统治者还建议年轻人，在发表评论之前，尤其是在社交媒体上，应该深入阅读新闻报道，而不是仅仅根据标题就形成观点。

苏丹沙拉夫丁表示，年轻一代正确地重视了环境可持续性和遗产保护。

“经济发展绝不能以牺牲我们的自然环境或历史认同为代价。”

他说：“为子孙后代规划意味着保护森林、河流和绿地，同时保护我们的历史地标和文化传统。发展和保护并非相互对立的目标；它们应该相辅相成。”

殿下还指出，教育仍然是长期进步的基础，尤其是在让年轻人为快速变化的世界做好准备方面。

“人工智能可能不会取代所有工作，但在许多情况下，接受过人工智能培训的人将取代那些没有接受过培训的人。”

“雪兰莪州绝不能在这方面落后。我们必须做好准备，我希望州政府能够意识到这一点，”他说。

苏丹沙拉夫丁也告诫说，随着雪兰莪州迈向老龄化社会，老年人的福祉不容忽视。

苏丹表示，医疗服务必须随着人口结构的变化而发展，同时创新应继续增强该州的竞争力。

殿下提议雪兰莪州努力成为第一个建立专门的老年医学中心的州属，该中心专门从事老年人的健康、护理、预防和治疗。

这些问题包括与年龄相关的疾病，例如跌倒、虚弱、尿失禁和记忆力衰退。

他补充说：“我们需要优先考虑老年人的整体生活质量，包括他们的安全、独立性和均衡的用药。”——马新社
