FAKTA MENARIK | SEJARAH JOHOR | KEISTIMEWAAN KELUARGA DIRAJA JOHOR DI MATA RAKYAT - BAHAGIAN SEPULUH
Keistimewaan yang dapat dilihat sejak dahulu adalah bahawa rakyat Johor ibarat seperti sebuah keluarga besar kepada keluarga diraja. Keluarga Diraja Johor sejak dahulu tidak gemar sikap melepas tangan akan tugas dan tanggungjawab kepada rakyat malah sebolehnya mahu memberi sentuhan peribadi di mana sahaja. Keberangkatan DYMM Tuanku serta seluruh Keluarga Diraja Johor menjenguk rakyat di seluruh pelusuk negeri secara spontan amat terkesan di hati rakyat.
Disebalik kedudukan baginda Tuanku dan Keluarga Diraja Johor sebagai sebuah institusi tertinggi dalam negeri, terselindung sebuah kehidupan biasa seperti insan biasa yang lain. Walaupun terlatih sebagai seorang komando yang berdisiplin tinggi, di sudut lain baginda Tuanku memiliki kemahiran memasak. Selain memasak untuk keluarga di masa lapang, baginda juga secara spontan memasak untuk mangsa-mangsa banjir di mukim Gemereh daerah Segamat.
DYMM Raja Zarith Sofiah Permaisuri Johor yang amat berbakat dalam seni lukisan telah menyumbangkan karya berjudul ‘Terima Kasih’ atas komitmen petugas-petugas barisan hadapan di semua klinik dan hospital di seluruh Johor. Tidak kurangnya DYAM Mejar Jeneral Tunku Ismail Tunku Mahkota Johor secara spontan turut bersama anak-anak yatim bermain bola sepak secara berkaki ayam. Baginda yang sudah biasa mengikuti ayahanda sejak kecil tidak berasa kekok malah selesa bergaul dengan rakyat dengan cara yang sederhana.
DYMM Sultan Ibrahim juga sering melawat kampung-kampung dan baginda lebih selesa bersua terus dengan penghulu atau ketua kampung serta penduduk setempat untuk bersembang santai. Baginda gemar bersarapan pagi bersama penduduk kampung secara santai di awal pagi. Sikap mesra namun tegas terutama hal melibatkan kesejahteraan rakyat sudah dikenali pelbagai lapisan rakyat Johor sejak berzaman lagi.
Hari Rabu setiap minggu pula telah Tuanku dan Tunku Mahkota Johor jadikan masa untuk menerima mengadap Menteri Besar dan Setiausaha Kerajaan bermesyuarat dan bermuafakat dalam perkembangan pembangunan rakyat dan negeri Johor. Walaupun tidak semua perkara dapat dilihat oleh mata kasar rakyat, namun fikiran dan luahan baginda terhadap perkembangan rakyat dan negeri masih kedengaran disebalik tembok Istana.
Segala progres pembangunan dan perancangan DYMM Tuanku serta keluarga untuk masa hadapan negeri Johor tidak pernah ada titik noktahnya. Walaupun berdiri sebagai seorang Raja Pemerintah, baginda dengan rendah diri mengumpamakan diri baginda sebagai ‘hamba kepada rakyat’ dimana khidmat baginda serta keluarga diraja adalah istimewa demi rakyat Johor. Allah Peliharakan Sultan.
