The Terengganu state assembly unanimously agreed to elect PAS permanent secretary Hussin Ismail as a senator to represent Terengganu at the Dewan Negara.
The motion to elect Hussin was brought by Menteri Besar Ahmad Samsuri Mokhtar at the state assembly sitting in Kuala Terengganu today.
“May his participation as the representative for Terengganu at the Senate contribute something to Islam, the country, and the state,” Samsuri said.
Apart from politics, Hussin, 68, who has been holding the post of PAS permanent chairperson since 2012, is also active in various government and non-governmental organisations.
He has been chairperson of the Yayasan Dakwah Islamiah Malaysia (Yadim)’s Dakwah Sarawak Cluster since 2021, as well as the founder and president of Yayasan Amal Malaysia since 2001.
The father of nine has also led numerous humanitarian missions to over 40 countries.
Hussin (above), who hails from Bukit Payong, Marang, Terengganu is also the recipient of Terengganu’s Tokoh Maal Hijrah Award in 2020.
