TERENGGANU has long struggled with a lack of female representation in its state legislature. For 44 years, from 1974 to 2018, there was no female state legislator.
This changed in 2018 when Terengganu Mentri Besar, Dr Ahmad Samsuri Mokhtar, used Article 27(2) of the Terengganu state Constitution to appoint Zuraida Mohamad Nor as the first-ever female appointed legislator.
