พลเอกประยุทธ์ จันทร์โอชา หัวหน้าคณะรักษาความสงบแห่งชาติ ได้มีสารแสดงความเสียใจถึงนายกรัฐมนตรีมาเลเซีย ดังนี้
It is with deep sorrow that I have learnt of the passing away of the His Royal Highness Sultan Azlan Muhibuddin Shah Ibni Almarhum Sultan Yussuff Izzuddin Shah Ghafarullahu-Lah, the Sultan of Perak and a former Yang di-Pertuan Agong of Malaysia. His Royal Highness won respect far and wide for his immense contributions to the development of the modern judicial and legal systems of Malaysia as well as for his patronship for many charitable organizations. His Royal Highness' State Visit to Thailand in 1990 as His Majesty the Yang di-Pertuan Agong of Malaysia was a historic event in the relations between Thailand and Malaysia, which greatly helped reinforce the foundation of our people-to-people bonds of affinity and friendship.
In this moment of sadness, allow me, on nehalf of the Government and the people of the Kingdom of Thailand, to extend, to you and through you, to all members of the Perak Royal Family and to the Government and the people of Malaysia my profound sympathy and condolences for a great loss for the Malaysian nation.
Accept, Excellency, the assurances of my highest consideration.
General Prayuth Chan-O-Cha
Chairman of the National Council for Peace and Order
