Datuk Dr. Haji Wan Junaidi Tuanku Jaafar (born 1 February 1946) is a Malaysian politician. He is the Deputy Minister of Home Affairs and currently the Member of the Parliament of Malaysia for the Santubong constituency in Sarawak, representing the Parti Pesaka Bumiputera Bersatu (PBB) in the ruling Barisan Nasional coalition. Previously, he was a Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives.[1]
Wan Junaidi was elected to Parliament in the 1990 election. He served for a period as one of Parliament's Deputy Speakers.[2] Wan Junaidi's elevation to the deputy ministry, in the home affairs portfolio, occurred after the 2013 election. During his tenure he controversially attributed a high rate in statutory rape cases among Malays to Malays being "culturally more sensitive" about their youth, and reporting more cases, than other races.[3]
