Career

Azlan graduated from the University of Denver with a degree in international economics, before joining Malaysia's diplomatic corps. His diplomatic posts included an appointment in 1999 as Malaysia's Permanent Mission Counsellor to the United Nations.[1][2] In 2011 he was appointed the Deputy Director of the Public Complaints Bureau.[3] He left Malaysia's public service in 2013 to return to his home state of Perlis and contest the state assembly seat of Pauh. He won the election and was immediately appointed as the state's Menteri Besar (Chief Minister), replacing Md Isa Sabu, who had not recontested his assembly seat. He was sworn in by King Sirajuddin on 7 May 2013.[1]
