The Negeri Sembilan State Legislative Assembly erupted in controversy on August 18, 2026, over an RM180,000 allocation approved for Pakatan Harapan (PH) lawmakers just before the assembly was dissolved. Opposition and Barisan Nasional (BN) lawmakers demanded transparency regarding the allocation, questioning its timing and appropriateness.
Datuk Saiful Yazan Sulaiman (Johol-BN) likened the allocation to an election fund and called for an investigation into the matter. Teo Kok Seong (Bahau-PH) defended the allocation, stating it had been approved according to established procedures. The dispute deepened as lawmakers questioned why the funds were approved for the period between July and October when the assembly had already been dissolved in May.
