Negeri Sembilan govt must function as usual, says Jalaluddin
Asked how the state administration will function without members of the state executive council, he says there are various options at hand.
Negeri Sembilan Umno chief Jalaluddin Alias affirmed the state government must continue functioning as usual to safeguard the welfare of its people amid the ongoing political turmoil. The special meeting with Negeri Sembilan Barisan Nasional assemblymen, chaired by BN chairman Ahmad Zahid Hamidi, emphasized prioritizing the well-being and interests of the populace.
Jalaluddin, who represented the Pertang assembly, indicated there were multiple avenues to ensure the government's operation, with the Menteri Besar having a strategy to mobilize government machinery in the people's favor. The meeting, attended by BN and Perikatan Nasional backbenchers' chairmen, also featured state ministers Ismail Lasim and others.
Zahid Hamidi later stated the primary goal was to coordinate and identify the optimal solution in alignment with the state constitution and customary laws, without the need for a political emergency as security remained under control.
