Raja Ideris bin Raja Ahmad (1944–17 September 2025) was a Malaysian politician who served as Member of the Selangor State Executive Council (EXCO) in the Barisan Nasional (BN) state administration under former Menteri Besar Khir Toyo from 2000 to the collapse of the BN administration in 2008, Abu Hassan Omar from 1999 to 2000 as well as Member of the Selangor State Legislative Assembly (MLA) for Sungai Air Tawar from March 2008 to May 2013 and Sabak from October 1990 to May 2008.
Raja Ideris did not contest the 2013 general election.[1]
Issues and controversies
On 9 November 2009, he filed an originating summons together with Morib MLA Hasiman Sidom and Kuala Kubu Baharu MLA Wong Koon Mun against Teng Chang Khim and six Select Committee members. The summons was filed at the Shah Alam High Court registry. Their lawyers were Datuk V. Sithambaram, Kamarul Hisham Kamaruddin and Balvinder Singh Kenth. Also sued were the Speaker of the Selangor State Legislative Assembly, the Secretary of the Selangor State Legislative Assembly and the Selangor State Government. However, Article 72 (1) of the Federal Constitution states that any proceedings of the legislative assembly cannot be brought in court. Therefore, this suit does not meet the locus standi.[2]
Death
Raja Ideris Raja Ahmad died on 17 September 2025. He was 81.[3]
