Overall due diligence
Insufficient evidence
Enhanced due diligence required
The public record is limited to one official election result and encyclopedic entries confirming his seat and party post, with no corporate, litigation, regulatory or financial reporting; enhanced checks are warranted because he holds federal legislative office.
Electoral resilience
Medium
One contest on record: won P154 Mersing in GE15 (2022) with 21,066 votes and a 2,337 majority. No earlier or later contests appear in the records.
Political continuity
Stable
Records show a single affiliation, BERSATU within Perikatan Nasional, with no party or coalition changes documented. He took the Mersing seat from a predecessor who held it for five terms.
Integrity signal
Open
No allegation, charge, conviction or court matter appears in any record. Coverage is limited to election results and encyclopedic entries, so this is an absence of records rather than a verified clean record.
Financial / corporate
Open
No company-registry, GLC, asset-declaration, credit or bankruptcy checks are covered by the records.
How much due-diligence attention each area needs — not a finding of wrongdoing.
Sitting federal legislator (Dewan Rakyat, Mersing) — high exposure from the office itself.
Holds a state-level party information post within BERSATU Johor; records document no wider commercial or institutional network.
No records on constituency or federal procurement, contracts or tender involvement.
No SSM, GLC, foundation or directorship records are provided.
No civil or criminal court matters appear in the records.
No MACC, regulatory or disciplinary findings appear in the records.
No asset declaration, income or credit information is covered.
Only encyclopedic entries and one election result are on file; no media reporting is captured.
The public record for this individual is limited to official election results and encyclopedic entries: a GE15 (2022) win in Mersing with 21,066 votes and a 2,337 majority, a Dewan Rakyat seat held since November 2022, and a BERSATU Johor information post reported by Wikipedia. No corporate, litigation, regulatory, procurement or financial information is available. He is a PEP by virtue of federal office, so the exposure rating reflects the office rather than any recorded wrongdoing. Additional verification via SSM, court registries, MACC and parliamentary interest declarations is needed before any assessment beyond that.
Public-record review · allegations ≠ findings · a charge is not a conviction · every point links to its source record (E official results, R reviewed records, N collected reports). Prepared by AI from the records on this page; not an analyst finding, and it can be wrong.
