Current
Overall due diligence
Moderate
Enhanced due diligence required
The records show a senior state executive office-holder (Deputy Menteri Besar and long-serving exco) who speaks publicly on state mining permits and enforcement, so enhanced due diligence is warranted, while no allegation or case against him personally appears in the records.
Electoral resilience
High
Four consecutive wins in Temangan (2008, 2013, 2018, 2023), with the majority rising from 1,239 in 2008 to 7,479 in 2023.
Political continuity
Stable
Reported as a PAS member throughout, contesting under PR, GS and PN coalition labels; continuous assembly and exco service since 2008 with no party switch documented.
Integrity signal
Clear
No allegation, charge, or court case against him appears in the records; the enforcement matters he describes concern companies and individuals encroaching on mining areas, not himself.
Financial / corporate
Open
The records contain no company-registry (SSM), GLC, asset-declaration, credit or court-registry material, so corporate and financial exposure cannot be assessed.
How much due-diligence attention each area needs — not a finding of wrongdoing.
Deputy Menteri Besar and four-term state assemblyman holding exco office since 2008 — senior political office drives the rating.
Long tenure in the Kelantan state executive and public statements on behalf of the state government and assembly business.
He speaks for the state on exploration permits issued by the Kelantan government and on enforcement against permit-holders found mining illegally, but no procurement records are provided.
No company, GLC or foundation role is documented in the records.
No personal court matter is recorded; the only case mentioned is the 2024 Federal Court ruling on the state syariah enactment, which he referenced as context.
No regulatory or criminal finding against him appears; the mining investigation papers and prosecutions described concern operators and encroachers.
No asset declaration, income or financial-interest disclosure is contained in the records.
Coverage in the records consists of official statements carried by several outlets, with no adverse personal reporting.
He stated that the Syariah Criminal Offences (Kelantan) Bill 2026 was drafted with constitutional experts and within state legislative jurisdiction, taking into account the 2024 Federal Court decision that struck down 16 provisions of the 2019 enactment.N8
Status: Ruling noted as background; the records do not show him as a party to the case.
The record is dominated by official election results and by official statements he made as a Kelantan state executive office-holder, documenting four consecutive Temangan wins since 2008 and service as exco across four periods and Deputy Menteri Besar from 2023. Coverage of his statements is substantive on illegal mining enforcement and on the 2026 syariah bill, but there is no corporate, asset, credit or court-registry material and no allegation or case against him personally. PEP exposure is high because of the office; oversight of state-issued mining permits is the main area that warrants closer verification. Several bio and position details rest on single-outlet or open-edited sources, so they should be confirmed against official records.
