Negeri Sembilan rejects gazette move on ruler succession proclamation

The Negeri Sembilan state secretary's office has rejected a move to gazette removal and succession proclamations, according to state secretary Zafir Mohamed Zain. Zafir stated that his office is accepting advice from the Attorney General's Chambers (AGC) that the proclamation in question was procedurally invalid. The decision follows a legal review of the matter by Malaysia's chief legal authority. The state administration's position aligns with the AGC's assessment of the document's validity and proper execution. No further action will be taken on the gazette notification at this time, pending resolution of the underlying legal issues surrounding the proclamation's status.
