Mohd Rafiq Mohd Abdullah

Political career Member of the Selangor State Legislative Assembly (since 2023) 2023 Selangor state election In the 2023 Selangor state election, Mohd Rafiq made his electoral debut after being nominated by PN to contest the Kuang state seat. Mohd Rafiq won the seat and was elected to the Selangor State Legislative Assembly as the Kuang MLA for the first term after defeating Hasnal Rezua Merican Habib Merican of Barisan Nasional (BN) and independent candidate Sallehudin Amiruddin who was defending the seat by a majority of 4,875 votes.

On 19 August 2023, Mohd Rafiq, as the Kuang MLA, characterised that a government is the government that acts fairly towards all the elected representatives. He attributed the excessive politicking in Malaysia to the issue of unfair government allocations given to the elected representatives and highlighted that fair government allocations would be able to solve the political problems. He further said that it was hard for the elected representatives to serve the people without enough allocations where there was a double standard in the issue. He also called for an end to the politics of revenge where the opposition elected representatives were not given government allocations and the people were victimised. Furthermore, he pointed out that there were government allocations but were not given to the elected representatives but the coordinators to carry out activities. Moreover, he revealed that the salaries of the opposition elected representatives went to help the people but they were far from enough and the elected representatives were forced to find other financial sources. Furthermore, he stated that the 22 opposition Selangor MLAs would voice loud and clear opposition in the state legislative assembly if the fair government allocations were not given to the opposition MLAs.
