  "account": "On September 28, the Second Part of the Laws of the Constitution, Negeri Sembilan, 1959, known as \"The Machinery of Government,\" outlines the structure of the state's executive authority. Specifically, Article 35 states that the executive authority of the State shall be vested in the Ruler, who may exercise it directly or through the Executive Council or a member of the Council authorized by the Council. The Ruler's authority is further defined by Articles 28(1), 34(1), and 38, which establish the composition of the Executive Council and the role of the Menteri Besar.\n\nIn this context, Barisan Nasional chairman Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi has called upon Menteri Besar Datuk Ismail Lasim to meet with Yang di-Pertuan Besar Tuanku Muhriz Tuanku Munawir. This request comes in the wake of efforts by Ismail and his state executive councillors to meet with Tunku Nadzaruddin Tuanku Ja’afar. However, Zahid emphasized that the people must be prioritized, and action must be taken to avoid victimizing them. He urged everyone to heed this call.",
