Neden Önemli?
Negeri Sembilan is the only state in Malaysia that elects its ruler, the Yang di-Pertuan Besar, through a customary system known as adat perpatih.
They also named Tunku Nadzaruddin Tuanku Ja’afar, son of the late ruler Tuanku Ja’afar, as the 12th ruler of Negeri Sembilan.
The dispute has drawn unusual attention because Negeri Sembilan is Malaysia’s only state with an elected Malay ruler.
Instead of the usual hereditary sultans in other states, Negeri Sembilan’s ruler – known as the Yang di-Pertuan Besar – is chosen by four territorial chiefs, known as the Undang, under adat perpatih, a Minangkabau-derived customary system unique in Malaysia.
Those chiefs represent Sungai Ujong, Jelebu, Johol and Rembau and, under the state constitution, play a decisive role not only in choosing the ruler but also in any process to suspend or remove him.
