Current
Overall due diligence
Insufficient evidence
Public record is limited to three official state-election results; no integrity, financial, corporate or court records are available to assess.
Electoral resilience
Low
Won Bukit Lada once in 2004 (majority 2,769) but lost the same seat in both 2008 and 2018.
Political continuity
Stable
Contested all three elections under the same UMNO/BN banner.
Integrity signal
Open
No integrity, ethics or MACC records are in the file; absence of records is not evidence of a clean record.
Financial / corporate
Open
No SSM company searches, asset declarations, or Auditor-General reports in the file.
How much due-diligence attention each area needs — not a finding of wrongdoing.
Records show only electoral outcomes; current or recent appointed office is not documented.
No records document factional links, patronage or coalition relationships beyond UMNO/BN candidacy.
The file contains only three official state-election results for Kedah N9 Bukit Lada. Mr Ariffin won the seat once in 2004 (majority 2,769) and lost the same seat in 2008 and 2018, all on a UMNO/BN ticket, with vote totals trending downward. Because no integrity, corporate, financial or court records are in the file, every other dimension is marked open and the overall rating is set to insufficient. Any reliance on this brief should be preceded by the concrete verification steps listed, particularly SPR/SSM/MACC/court-registry checks.
