===Lifestyle=== During his time as the Agong, Sultan Iskandar was often seen in public carrying a pistol in his waistband, which drew considerable concern and discomfort from the Malaysian public due to his past record of criminal offences.<ref name="Asia & Pacific 1984, pg 229">''Asia & Pacific'' (1984), pg 229</ref> He was also reputed to have led a flamboyant lifestyle, which also drew similar criticism.<ref name="Asia & Pacific 1984, pg 229"/> He was also known to be a motorbike enthusiast; documentaries on national patriotism would feature Sultan Iskandar, the then-Agong, riding out on a police motorbike and his flamboyant appearance during a few public ceremonies. These documentaries drew criticisms from the Malaysian public, who felt that the television clips of Sultan Iskandar were inappropriate for its theme and national image.<ref>Kershaw (2001), pg 225</ref>
