A meeting aimed at resolving the Negeri Sembilan political impasse concluded without a definitive outcome on Monday night, leaving the state's future path uncertain. Ten executive councillors had their appointments revoked by Negeri Sembilan's Yang di-Pertuan Besar Tuanku Muhriz after they allegedly breached their loyalty oath. The meeting, held at Kuala Lumpur's World Trade Centre, included representatives from both Barisan Nasional and Perikatan Nasional parties.
BN and PN leaders declined to speak publicly, while Menteri Besar Ismail Lasim left without offering any insights into how the state government would function without the Exco. No formal resolution was announced, leaving key questions about the Exco's status and the subsequent government operations unanswered. The BN chairman, Ahmad Zahid Hamidi, had earlier indicated he would consult with BN assemblymen on potential solutions, emphasizing the need to comply with the Negeri Sembilan Constitution.
Ismail was expected to continue dialogues with traditional state institutions and other stakeholders following the meeting.
