Negeri Sembilan Undang, disputed chiefs: Conference of Rulers told of Tunku Nadzaruddin’s succession

The Negeri Sembilan government has informed the Conference of Rulers about Tunku Nadzaruddin's selection as the state's 12th Yang di-Pertuan Besar.

The group insists that Tunku Nadzaruddin is the lawful authority under the Negeri Sembilan Constitution to exercise all functions of the Yang di-Pertuan Besar.

There is a dispute with Dewan Keadilan dan Undang, which asserts Tuanku Muhriz is the lawful Yang di-Pertuan Besar and the April 19 proclamation is invalid.

KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 25 — The Negeri Sembilan government has notified the Conference of Rulers of Tunku Nadzaruddin Tuanku Ja’afar’s selection as the state’s 12th Yang di-Pertuan Besar, according to an Undang and three ruling chiefs whose positions are disputed.

The group said the notification meant Tunku Nadzaruddin was the only person with lawful authority to perform the functions of the Yang di-Pertuan Besar under the Negeri Sembilan Constitution 1959, including attending meetings of the Conference of Rulers, The Star reported today.

It also urged the state administration to recognise Tunku Nadzaruddin and provide him with the privileges and entitlements attached to the office.

“The state government administration must comply and remain loyal and must not commit any act of disobedience.

“The state government administration must also immediately accord all privileges and entitlements prescribed for Tunku Nadzaruddin,” they said.

State civil servants, meanwhile, were urged to follow decisions of the executive council and not bow to pressure from any party.

The group said the official notification to the Conference of Rulers reflected its position that Tunku Nadzaruddin was entitled to exercise all the functions of the Yang di-Pertuan Besar.

“Through the... official notification to the Conference of Rulers, only Tunku Nadzaruddin... has the lawful authority to exercise all functions of the Yang di-Pertuan Besar under the Negeri Sembilan Constitution 1959, including attending all meetings of the Conference of Rulers,” they said.

The joint statement was issued by Undang of Johol Datuk Muhammed Abdullah, Datuk Mubarak Thahak, Datuk Maarof Mat Rashad and Datuk Abdul Rahim Yasin, whose positions as the Undang of Sungei Ujong, Jelebu and Rembau respectively are disputed.

Tunku Besar Tampin Tunku Syed Razman Syed Idrus Al-Qadri was also a signatory.

The group maintains that Tuanku Muhriz Tuanku Munawir was removed as Yang di-Pertuan Besar on April 19, with Tunku Nadzaruddin subsequently chosen as his successor.

The Dewan Keadilan dan Undang disputes that account, maintaining that Tuanku Muhriz remains the lawful Yang di-Pertuan Besar and that the April 19 proclamation was invalid.

森美兰州政府已通知统治者会议，东姑纳扎鲁丁被选为该州第十二任国家元首。

该组织坚称，东姑纳扎鲁丁是森美兰宪法规定的合法权力机构，可以行使国家元首的所有职能。

与 Dewan Keadilan dan Undang 存在争议，后者声称端姑穆里兹是合法的国家元首，并且 4 月 19 日的公告无效。

吉隆坡，9月25日——据一名Undang和三名职位有争议的执政酋长透露，森美兰州政府已通知东姑纳扎鲁丁统治者会议选举东姑纳扎鲁丁端姑贾法尔为该州第十二任国家元首。

据《星报》今日报道，该团体表示，这一通知意味着，根据1959年森美兰州宪法，只有东姑纳扎鲁丁拥有合法权力履行最高统治者（Yang di-Pertuan Besar）的职责，包括出席统治者会议。

它还敦促州政府承认东姑纳扎鲁丁的地位，并给予他与该职位相关的特权和权利。

“州政府行政部门必须服从命令，保持忠诚，不得有任何违抗命令的行为。”

他们说：“州政府行政部门也必须立即给予东姑纳扎鲁丁所有规定的特权和权利。”

与此同时，国家公务员被敦促遵守行政委员会的决定，不要屈服于任何一方的压力。

该团体表示，向统治者会议发出的正式通知反映了其立场，即东姑纳扎鲁丁有权行使最高统治者的所有职能。

他们表示：“通过向统治者会议发出的正式通知，只有东姑纳扎鲁丁……拥有根据1959年森美兰州宪法行使最高元首所有职能的合法权力，包括出席统治者会议的所有会议。”

该联合声明是由Johol Datuk Muhammed Abdullah、Datuk Mubarak Thahak、Datuk Maarof Mat Rashad和Datuk Abdul Rahim Yasin的Undang发表，他们分别作为双溪乌戎、日勒务和林茂的Undang的地位存在争议。

Tunku Besar Tampin Tunku Syed Razman Syed Idrus Al-Qadri 也是签署者。

该组织坚称，端姑慕力兹端姑穆纳维尔于4月19日被免去国家元首职务，随后东姑纳扎鲁丁被选为他的继任者。

下议院对这一说法提出质疑，坚称端姑穆里兹仍然是合法的国家元首，并且 4 月 19 日的公告无效。

森美兰州法律要求首相和总检察署不要干涉州内事务。

律师称，如果高等法院暂缓执行纳吉布因1MDB丑闻被判处的15年监禁，且其缴纳5000万令吉罚款，纳吉布下个月可能就会走出加影监狱。
