Current
Overall due diligence
Moderate
Enhanced due diligence required
The records show a state assemblyman and political secretary to the Johor Menteri Besar with a reported interface with public development spending, but no adverse findings, so enhanced due diligence is warranted for the offices and money flows shown rather than for any misconduct.
Electoral resilience
High
Lost Kempas in 2018, then won in 2022 with a 3,514 majority and in 2026 with a 14,953 majority on 28,146 votes, a widening margin over three consecutive UMNO/BN contests.
Political continuity
Stable
Contested Kempas under UMNO/BN in 2018, 2022 and 2026 with no party or coalition change in the records.
Integrity signal
Clear
No allegations, charges, convictions, acquittals, dismissals or pardons appear anywhere in the records. No MACC, police, regulatory or court records are included, so this reflects only the absence of adverse items in these files.
Financial / corporate
Open
No company-registry, GLC, asset-declaration, credit or court-registry checks are covered; only a reported allocation of nearly RM30 million for development and welfare in DUN Kempas, including RM21.2 million for PPR Kempas repair works.
How much due-diligence attention each area needs — not a finding of wrongdoing.
Holds a state assembly seat and the political-secretary post attached to the Johor Menteri Besar, both politically exposed positions.
Documented working ties to the Johor Menteri Besar, a state Umno figure and cross-coalition election campaigning, alongside three consecutive UMNO/BN contests.
Single-source reporting credits him with nearly RM30 million of development and welfare spending in his constituency, including RM21.2 million of PPR Kempas works.
No company, GLC or foundation roles appear in the records; no registry checks are included.
No court or legal matters are recorded and no court-registry search is included in these files.
No MACC, police or regulatory material is included, so this dimension is not covered by the records.
No asset declarations, financial disclosures or credit checks are covered; only a reported public allocation for his constituency is on record.
Coverage in these files is local-issue and service-delivery focused, largely single-source, with no critical reporting on record.
The records present Ramlee bin Bohani as a UMNO/BN state assemblyman for Kempas who lost the seat in 2018 before winning it in 2022 and 2026 with a sharply increased majority, and who was appointed Political Secretary to the Johor Menteri Besar in March 2022. Coverage beyond the election results is thin and largely single-source, describing city-council service, constituency development spending and local infrastructure engagement. No legal, regulatory or integrity matters appear, but the absence of company-registry, asset, court and procurement records means those areas cannot be assessed. Enhanced due diligence is indicated by his state office and reported interface with public development funds, not by any adverse finding.
