- Shahidan_Kassim abstract "Datuk Seri Shahidan Kassim (born 17 June 1951) is a Malaysian politician. He is a minister in the federal Cabinet of Najib Tun Razak and is a member of the Parliament of Malaysia for the seat of Arau, representing the United Malays National Organisation (UMNO). He was the Chief Minister of the State of Perlis from 1995 to 2008. Before becoming Chief Minister of Perlis, Shahidan was a member of the Federal Parliament for Arau from 1986 to 1995. In 1992, he received international coverage for his criticism of what he cited as the criminal acts of Sultan Iskandar of Johor and his son Tunku Ibrahim Ismail.He was elected to the Perlis State Legislative Assembly for the newly created seat of Tambun Tulang in the 1995 election. He immediately became Menteri Besar of Perlis, taking over from Hamid Pawanteh. His tenure as Menteri Besar came to an end in March 2008, when Md Isa Sabu, a fellow member of Barisan Nasional, was appointed to the post by Sultan Sirajuddin of Perlis. Md Isa was appointed after claiming the support of eight out of the 12 other Barisan Nasional members of the Perlis State Assembly to replace Shahidan. Shahidan left the Perlis executive council, sitting in the state assembly as a backbencher and criticising Md Isa's leadership.In the 2013 election, Shahidan returned to federal parliament in the seat of Arau, switching seats with his brother Ismail, who had held Arau since 2008. Shahidan defeated the senior Pan-Malaysian Islamic Party leader Haron Din by 1,371 votes. Despite his return to federal politics, Shahidan had stated before the election that his preference would have been to remain in the state assembly. After the election, he was appointed to the Cabinet of Najib Tun Razak as a minister in the Prime Minister's Department.According to Joceline Tan, columnist for The Star, Shahidan has a "larger-than-life personality" and is known for his "warlord style of politics". He has held numerous positions in sports administration, including the presidencies of the Malaysia Athletic Federation, the Amateur Swimming Union of Malaysia and the Perlis Football Association. In 2010, he called for Facebook to be banned in Malaysia, citing national security issues after a Facebook account holder was found to have insulted Islam and the current as well as the former Prime Ministers of Malaysia.Shahidan was born in Tambun Tulang on 17 June 1951. He is married to Shamsiah Mohd Yassin.".
