Zambry, 51, who holds a doctorate in temporary politics from Temple University, the United States, was a one-term state executive councillor before Perak fell to Pakatan Rakyat in the 2008 general election.
The BN took over the reigns of government in February 2009 after the opposition-led state government collapsed after three Pakatan assemblypersons declared themselves as Independent and BN-friendly assemblypersons.
The Sultan of Perak, Sultan Azlan Shah, later appointed Zambry as the 11th menteri besar.
At the outset of his leadership, Zambry improved the District and Land Office’s land administration process and set up a think-tank, the Darul Ridzuan Institute to plan and implement various initiatives to assist the people in various aspects.
He also initiated Yayasan Bina Upaya Darul Ridzuan to alleviate poverty and implement community capacity building programmes to live up to the slogan ‘Tiada Tertinggal, Tiada Terpinggir’ (No one is left behind, no one is neglected).
The Perak government under his stewardship also implemented the 3P approach of ‘padang, perasaan, penyelesaian’ (field, feeling, solution) which entails going down to the ground, understanding the people’s problems and finding solutions.
Zambry also introduced the Perak Amanjaya Transformation which is based on seven Key Result Areas and sets out development targets to improve the people’s income and provide them with better social services and greater opportunities.
