Current
Overall due diligence
Moderate
Enhanced due diligence required
The records show a long-serving assemblyman who was a state executive councillor, i.e. a senior PEP, while corporate, financial and legal coverage is absent, so enhanced checks are warranted for what is shown.
Electoral resilience
High
Won Batu Talam five consecutive times, from the January 2007 by-election to 2022. Majority narrowed to 2,869 in 2022 from 4,320 in 2018.
Political continuity
Stable
All recorded candidacies and office-holding are under UMNO/BN; no party switch appears in the records.
Integrity signal
Clear
No allegation, charge, case or regulatory finding appears in the records. This reflects the absence of such records only, not a verification of probity.
Financial / corporate
Open
The records contain no company-registry, GLC, asset-declaration or credit checks. No corporate or financial holdings are documented either way.
How much due-diligence attention each area needs — not a finding of wrongdoing.
Assemblyman since 2007 and reported state executive councillor 2018-2022, which is senior office carrying inherent PEP exposure.
Documented working ties to the Menteri Besar's state administration, district office, agencies and village development committees in his constituency.
No record of contracts, tenders or procurement decisions involving him.
No company, GLC or foundation roles are documented; no registry checks are included.
No civil or criminal court matters appear in the records; no court-registry check was provided.
No regulatory or enforcement records are included in the material.
No asset declaration, income or credit information is covered by the records.
Coverage in the records is routine constituency and development reporting, with no adverse reporting present.
The supplied record is thin and almost entirely electoral: five straight UMNO/BN wins in N6 Batu Talam from the 2007 by-election to 2022, plus single-source reports that he was a Pahang state executive councillor from June 2018 to November 2022 and remained active on constituency development reporting in 2026. That makes him a senior office-holder whose PEP exposure follows from the offices recorded, not from any adverse material, and no allegation, charge, case or regulatory finding appears. Corporate, financial, litigation and procurement areas are open because the records contain no such checks. Overall this is a moderate due-diligence picture that should be completed with registry, court and declaration checks before reliance.
