List of Malaysian State Assembly Representatives (1978–1982)

This list details the individuals who served as members of the various State Legislative Assemblies (Dewan Undangan Negeri) in Malaysia from 1978 to 1982. These representatives were elected during the 1978 Malaysian general election and subsequent state elections, and they served until the dissolution of their respective assemblies prior to the 1982 general election.

The State Legislative Assembly is the legislative branch of the government in each of the thirteen Malaysian states. Assembly members (Ahli Dewan Undangan Negeri, ADUN) are elected to represent single-member constituencies through a first-past-the-post system.

This list typically includes the following information for each representative:

• Name: The full name of the assembly member.
• Constituency: The name of the electoral district represented.
• Party: The political party affiliation of the assembly member.
• State: The state where the constituency is located.

It is important to note that political landscapes and allegiances can shift during a term. Therefore, information provided reflects the initial party affiliation at the time of election, although some representatives may have switched parties or become independent during their tenure. A comprehensive list would ideally also note any by-elections held during this period and their outcomes, as well as any changes in assembly membership due to deaths or resignations. Accessing complete and verified data for this specific timeframe can be challenging and may require consulting archived election commission records and newspaper reports.
