Negeri Sembilan govt, MB affirm full loyalty to Tuanku Muhriz
Ismail Lazim says his priority is to fulfil his duties as menteri besar in the interests of the people and the state.
On August 3, the Secretariat of the Four Undangs released a statement calling for the Negeri Sembilan administration, specifically the state secretary, to comply with a proclamation purporting to be signed by the menteri besar, Ismail Lasim. The proclamation reportedly ordered the removal of Tuanku Muhriz Tuanku Munawir as the ruler of the state.
However, both Ismail Lasim and the Negeri Sembilan government have since affirmed their full loyalty and support for Tuanku Muhriz. In a statement, Ismail emphasized his commitment to fulfilling his duties as menteri besar in the best interests of the people and the state. He acknowledged the media statement issued by the four undangs, stating that they are entitled to their opinions.
