Ethnic Chinese in the Dewan Rakyat

There have been 309 ethnic Chinese in the Dewan Rakyat since the establishment of the Parliament of Malaysia. As of 2018, there are 48 representatives, or 21.62% of the body.

Ethnic Chinese together with Malays, Indians and other ethnics in Malaysia have had the right to both vote and sit in parliament since 1959 and all states and territories have been represented by an ethnic Chinese in the Dewan Rakyat. Although ethnic Chinese make up near a quarter of the population, ethnic Chinese are mainly concentrated in urban areas and the parliamentary seat rate is relatively low comparing to other ethnics.
