Barisan Nasional has thanked Tuanku Muhriz for consenting to Datuk Ismail Lasim's appointment as Negeri Sembilan's new Menteri Besar following the state election, where BN secured 18 seats.
A political analyst recommends that PAS concentrate its efforts on capturing Umno-held seats in Negeri Sembilan, noting that many Barisan Nasional victories in the 2023 state election were won by razor-thin margins.
PAS has announced plans to contest DAP-held seats in Negeri Sembilan state elections, focusing on constituencies where Malays comprise at least 40% of the electorate, according to party chief Fairuz Isa.
