On August 3, the government of Negeri Sembilan has declared the day an occasional holiday to express gratitude to the people of the state and all parties involved in the successful 16th state election. Menteri besar Ismail Lasim announced this decision after obtaining consent from Tuanku Muhriz, the Yang Dipertuan Besar of Negeri Sembilan.
Ismail conveyed his appreciation to Tuanku Muhriz for his support in his appointment as the new menteri besar. The holiday aims to provide a break for the people who are still exhausted following the election. In the recent state election, Barisan Nasional secured 18 seats while Perikatan Nasional won seven, enabling both coalitions to form the state government with a two-thirds majority. The contest involved 36 seats and 103 candidates during the election.
