Daroyah binti Alwi is a Malaysian politician and dentist who served as Deputy Speaker of the Selangor State Legislative Assembly from 2019 to 2020, Member of the Selangor State Executive Council (EXCO) from 2013 to 2018 and Member of the Assembly (MLA) for Sementa from May 2013 to August 2023. She is a member of the Parti Bangsa Malaysia (PBM). She was an independent and a member of the People's Justice Party (PKR), a component party of the Pakatan Harapan (PH) and formerly Pakatan Rakyat (PR) coalitions.

Politics

In the 2018 Malaysian General Elections, she won the N43 Selangor Selangor State Assembly seat on Pakatan Harapan (PH) and Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) tickets. She also holds the portfolio of the Chairman of the Permanent Committee on Health, Welfare, Women's Affairs and Families of the Selangor State Government Council from May 2018 until June 2020.

At the grassroots level, she is the deputy chief of the People's Justice Party after winning the post in the 2010 PKR election and defeating two other candidates.

On June 13, 2020, she announced that she had quit the PKR party and became an independent assemblyman in support of the Perikatan Nasional coalition. She came out on the grounds that she had "lost confidence in the President (Anwar Ibrahim) and his harpist leadership of the idealism of the struggle".[1]
