Azan Ismail

Azan bin Ismail (born 10 May 1965) is a Malaysian politician who served as Member of the Terengganu State Legislative Assembly (MLA) for Bandar from May 2013 to May 2018 and the Member of Parliament (MP) for Indera Mahkota from March 2008 to May 2013. He is a member of the People's Justice Party (PKR), a component party of the Pakatan Harapan (PH) and formerly Pakatan Rakyat (PR) coalitions.

Azan was elected to Parliament in the 2008 general election, defeating Salamon Ali Rizal Abdul Rahman of the governing Barisan Nasional (BN) coalition by 1,027 votes. He was a member of PKR's leadership in Pahang before resigning in 2010, citing dissatisfaction with PKR's management. He subsequently became the leader of PKR in the neighbouring state of Terengganu, and was elected to the State Assembly there, for the seat of Bandar, in 2013 general election. His election unseated the incumbent BN assemblyman, Toh Chin Yaw, and was part of a swing to Pakatan Rakyat in the state that saw them win 15 of 32 assembly seats. Azan's move to Terengganu was carried out at the direction of PKR's national leader Anwar Ibrahim and involved Azan relinquishing renomination for his federal parliamentary seat.

In the 2018 general election, Azan failed to retain the Bandar state seat after he lost to Ahmad Shah Mohamed, from the Pan-Malaysian Islamic Party (PAS), in a three-corner fight with Toh Seng Cheng from Malaysian Chinese Association (MCA) of BN.
