This development occurs amidst speculation regarding his potential candidacy in the upcoming Selangor state election.
Appointment to Kota Raja Division Committee

Datuk Seri Tengku Zafrul Abdul Aziz has been appointed as a member of the Kota Raja division committee. This appointment was confirmed by Datuk Kamaruzzaman Johari, the Kota Raja Umno chief.

Senatorial Term and Previous Electoral History

Tengku Zafrul is currently serving his second term as a senator, a position that will conclude in 2025.

Prior to this, Tengku Zafrul contested the Kuala Selangor parliamentary seat in the 15th General Election (GE15) but was ultimately defeated by Datuk Seri Dzulkefly Ahmad.

According to an unnamed source cited by Malaysiakini, Tengku Zafrul has been identified as a possible candidate for one of the state seats within the Kota Raja parliamentary area. The two constituencies mentioned are Sungai Kandis and Kota Kemuning. Historically, the Sungai Kandis constituency has been contested by Umno.
