I reminded them that this is not a honeymoon period, the mandate given by the people must be translated into efficient service to continue the Maju Johor 2030 agenda.

Onn Hafiz stressed that the executive council positions are not privileges but significant trusts. He reminded the members that this is not a honeymoon period and that the mandate from the people must translate into efficient service to continue the "Maju Johor 2030" agenda. He urged for focused and effective work to build a prosperous Johor, assuring that the state government will protect all ethnic groups, including Malays, Chinese, Indians, and the Orang Asli, emphasizing unity as "Bangsa Johor."

Previously, Onn Hafiz, who secured a second term as Chief Minister after Barisan Nasional won 48 out of 56 state assembly seats, took his oath of office. The newly appointed executive council members also completed their swearing-in ceremony before the Acting Sultan of Johor, Tunku Mahkota Ismail, at Istana Bukit Serene. Four members from the previous council were not included in the new lineup: K. Raven Kumar, Aznan Tamin, Datuk Zahari Sarip, and Khairunnisa Ismail.
