Datuk Ismail Lasim was sworn in as the new Menteri Besar of Negeri Sembilan, with Yang di-Pertuan Besar Tuanku Muhriz presiding over the ceremony. UMNO Negeri Sembilan Chief Datuk Seri Jalaluddin Alias, who was one of the candidates for the position, did not attend due to a late invitation. He later denied being disappointed about not being appointed, emphasizing the success of Barisan Nasional (BN) in regaining control of the state. Ismail announced that the state government is considering creating the position of Deputy Exco to strengthen administration, with EXCO positions to be filled by assemblymen from BN, PAS, and WAWASAN. Jalaluddin has been invited to join the EXCO but has not yet made a decision.
