Anyi Ngau

Dato Anyi Ngau (born 1959) is a Malaysian politician who has served as the Member of Parliament (MP) for Baram since May 2013. He is a member of the Progressive Democratic Party (PDP), a component party of the Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS) and formerly Barisan Nasional (BN) coalitions. He has also served as the Secretary General of PDP since June 2023.

2013 general election
In the 2013 general election, Anyi made his electoral debut after being nominated by BN to contest for the Baram federal seat. He won the seat and was elected into Parliament as the Baram MP for the first term after narrowly defeating his nephew Roland Engan of Pakatan Rakyat (PR) and another independent candidate by a majority of only 194 votes.

2018 general election
In the 2018 general election, despite rumours that a direct member of BN would be nominated instead of Anyi to defend the Baram seat, he was renominated by BN to do so. He defended it and was reelected as the Baram MP for the second term after defeating Roland of Pakatan Harapan (PH) again by a majority of 1,990 votes.

2020 political appointments
On 9 March 2020, Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin offered PDP MP for Bintulu Tiong King Sing the appointment of the Deputy Minister of National Unity. However, Tiong declined it. There was a speculation that Muhyiddin would offer Anyi the appointment as Anyi was another PDP MP but this has never happened. Muhyiddin instead offered Senator and Malaysian Chinese Association (MCA) Vice-President Ti Lian Ker the appointment and was accepted by Ti. Instead, he was appointed Chairman of Malaysia Cocoa Board on 20 May 2020 replacing Deputy Minister of Home Affairs II and MP for Ranau Jonathan Yasin. He was additionally appointed Chairman of Malaysian Pepper Board on 1 July 2020.

2022 general election
In the 2022 general election, Anyi was nominated by GPS to defend the seat again. He defended the seat and was reelected as the Baram MP for the third term after defeating Roland of PH again and another independent candidate by a majority of 7,339 votes.

Background and education
Anyi is of Kenyah descent and graduated from Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM).
