Current
Overall due diligence
Moderate
Enhanced due diligence required
A first-term ADUN holding a state committee deputy chairmanship is a standard PEP, but the records carry no adverse findings and no company, asset, litigation or regulatory checks, so enhanced checks would close real gaps.
Electoral resilience
High
Won Serom by a 9,406-vote majority in a three-cornered contest, retaining the seat for BN. Only one contest is on record, so the margin is strong but the track record is short.
Political continuity
Stable
Contested and won under UMNO/BN, the coalition that held the seat previously; no party or coalition changes appear in the records.
Integrity signal
Clear
The records contain no allegations, charges or legal cases against her; the only contested claim is her denial of a party-machinery boycott, which is political rather than an integrity matter. This reflects only the supplied records, which include no court, MACC or regulatory checks.
Financial / corporate
Open
No SSM company searches, GLC or foundation appointments, asset declarations, credit checks or financial disclosures are included in the records.
How much due-diligence attention each area needs — not a finding of wrongdoing.
Sitting ADUN and state committee deputy chairman, which carries inherent PEP status regardless of conduct.
Documented roles as Ledang Puteri UMNO chief and as an appointee of the Menteri Besar within the state administration.
Her portfolio covers entrepreneur development and cooperatives, but the records contain no procurement, grant or tender information.
No company, GLC or foundation roles are documented in the records.
No court-registry or case searches are included; the records show no civil or criminal proceedings.
No MACC, regulatory or disciplinary records are included in the material supplied.
No asset declaration, income or financial disclosure information appears in the records.
Coverage is limited to election, appointment and one denied party-boycott claim, with no adverse reporting on conduct.
The public record on Nadhirah Afiqah binti Abdull Rahim is limited to the 2026 Johor state election, her BN win in Serom with a 9,406-vote majority, her reported Ledang Puteri UMNO role and her appointment as a deputy chairman of a Johor state committee. Nothing adverse appears in the supplied records, but those records contain no company, asset, litigation, regulatory or procurement information at all, so the absence of findings is not evidence of a clean record. She is a standard PEP by virtue of office, and enhanced due diligence should focus on corporate interests and the grant-facing elements of her portfolio. Her short tenure and one-contest electoral history mean resilience and continuity judgments rest on very few data points.
