From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
The Rulers of the Malay States in Malaysia are the eight Sultans of Kedah, Perak, Kelantan, Terengganu, Pahang, Selangor and Johor, the Yang di-Pertuan Besar of Negeri Sembilan and the Raja of Perlis. They are constitutional monarchs, and rule upon the advice of the state Menteri Besar or chief minister.
The other states of Malaysia have Governors, who are also figureheads.
