She is currently the Member of the Parliament of Malaysia for the Papar constituency in Sabah, representing the United Malays National Organisation (UMNO) party. She is a Deputy Minister for Works in the Barisan Nasional coalition government.[1]

Personal life

Rosnah was born on 10 July 1972 in Kota Belud, Sabah, Malaysia. Her father was an engineer while her mother was a housewife. Rosnah married Fadli Juanas on 11 July 2008. Rosnah and her family live in her hometown of Papar, Sabah.[2]

Political career

Rosnah was elected to Parliament in the 2004 election, after being nominated by Barisan Nasional to replace its incumbent member Osu Sukam.[3] Her election was unopposed.[4] Before her election, she was a lawyer,[4] and the head of UMNO's Puteri (female youth) wing in Sabah.[5]

In March 2009 she became the head of UMNO's women's youth wing ("UMNO Puteri")[6] and was subsequently appointed Deputy Minister for Health by incoming Prime Minister Najib Razak.[7]

On 16 May 2013, after the 13th General Election, she was shifted from Deputy Health Minister to Deputy Works Minister.[8] Also in 2013, she relinquished the leadership of UMNO Puteri due to her exceeding the organisation's age limit, and was elected to the Supreme Council of the full party.[9]
