The root of a nation's misfortunes has to be sought in the moral failings of the government.

In Quest of Democracy (1991)

It is the duty of the government to make all our people feel secure, and it is the duty of our people to learn to live in harmony with one another.

The royal duty of non-opposition is a reminder that the legitimacy of government is founded on the consent of the people, who may withdraw their mandate at any time if they lose confidence in the ability of the ruler to serve their best interests.
