Wan Rosdy Wan Ismail (United Malays National Organisation) has been Menteri Besar of Pahang since 15 May 2018. Since Wan Rosdy Wan Ismail took office in May 2018, real GDP has climbed 3.3% a year, against +3.7% for Malaysia. On GDP growth Pahang is 5th of the 10 states and territories, on the employment rate 10th. On violent crime the two part most: −15 per 100,000 in Pahang, −35 per 100,000 for Malaysia. Inflation: 2.1% on a year earlier in Sep 2026, +1.3 percentage points since day zero. From 2020 the population estimates follow the 2020 census: the step is the recount, not a change in the year. From 2019 the poverty line follows DOSM's revised 2019 method, which raised it: the rate jumps for that reason.
