Negeri Sembilan is seeking federal support for critical infrastructure, water security, and disaster preparedness in its Budget 2027 proposal. Menteri Besar Datuk Ismail Lasim outlined the priorities, which also include improving access to education and healthcare, and ensuring food security. The state's transport sector, particularly road network development, is essential for connectivity and economic growth.
Ismail emphasized that the state is prepared to collaborate with the Federal Government through various ministries, departments, and agencies to ensure successful implementation, monitoring, and evaluation of development projects. Infrastructure improvements are needed in Seremban, Port Dickson, Rembau, and Jempol to address rapid population growth and diverse sectoral demands.
These development proposals align with Negeri Sembilan's long-term development plan for 2026-2035, focusing on economic and social growth, sustainability, and inclusive development. Budget 2027 is set to be presented in Parliament on October 9.
