Meeting between Negeri Sembilan MB, former excos and Tunku Nadzaruddin cancelled

The scheduled meeting between Negeri Sembilan's menteri besar Ismail Lasim, former executive council members and Tunku Nadzaruddin Tuanku Ja'afar has been called off due to security concerns. The meeting, originally planned for 9am, aimed to foster an informal atmosphere and strengthen relationships among the participants. In addition to Ismail and Tunku Nadzaruddin, the four purported undangs - Tunku Besar of Tampin and Shahbandar of Sungai Ujong - had been expected to attend.

The cancellation occurs amid a constitutional crisis in the state. On September 17, the Attorney-General's Chambers ruled the proclamation attempting to remove Yang Dipertuan Besar, Tuanku Muhriz Tuanku Munawir, as state ruler invalid, stating that the menteri besar and exco members lacked the authority to carry out such a removal.

Later that day, Tuanku Muhriz revoked the appointments of 10 executive council members, citing violations of their oaths of office. Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim met with Tuanku Muhriz the following day.
