Rauf stated that the public holiday is a reward to the voters for granting BN the mandate to continue governing Malacca. Speaking at a media briefing at the Seri Negeri Complex in Ayer Keroh after taking the oath for his second term as chief minister, he expressed joy in making the announcement. The BN-PN alliance secured a significant majority, winning 24 out of the 28 parliamentary seats in the state, far surpassing the two-thirds majority threshold by a margin of 19 seats. BN won 21 seats while PN took three. Pakatan Harapan (PH) managed to win the remaining four seats.",
