Timeline
He remained in the Kijal state seat during the 14th General Election and won against PAS and PH candidates with a majority of 1265 votes. He won the Kemaman UMNO division chief in the 2018 party elections but lost in his UMNO vice-presidency. He was re-appointed Terengganu Umno Liaison Chairman to replace Datuk Sri Mahadzir Khalid on January 11, 2019
He resigned as Menteri Besar on 12 May 2014 making way for Ahmad Razif Abdul Rahman, an assemblyman from Seberang Takir. This was made as an agreement with the Prime Minister, Najib Razak that he will step down after a year in his second term. He, however, did not step down without another controversy (or crisis during his appointment). He and Ajil assemblyman, Ghazali Taib, followed by Bukit Besi assemblyman, Roslee Daud, quit UMNO, the ruling party in Terengganu and have caused the state to have a minority ruling government Barisan Nasional (14 state assemblyman) and a majority opposition Pakatan Rakyat (15 state assemblyman) with 3 independent assemblyman for the first time in Malaysia's history. This is because he felt slighted when Najib Razak rejected his proposal to quit after his daughter's wedding reception. However, all three then revoked their decision and returned to UMNO. He later on pledged to give his full support to the new MB.
Following the 2008 Malaysian general election, Barisan Nasional managed to win a majority in the Terengganu state election garnering 24 out of 32 state seats on offer, with PAS winning the remaining 8 seats.
On 22 March 2008, the office of the Sultan of Terengganu announced the appointment of Kijal assemblyman Ahmad Said instead of Idris Jusoh.
In spite of threats to strip Ahmad Said of his UMNO membership "for disobeying the leadership", he went to the office in Wisma Darul Iman to begin the first day of his new appointment on 25 March 2008. Ahmad Said was subsequently stripped of his UMNO membership. This technically disqualified him from representing the state UMNO and therefore commanding the majority in the legislative assembly to be appointed as Menteri Besar in the first place.
On 26 March 2008, Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi and Sultan Mizan Zainal Abidin met at Istana Negara to resolve the impasse. The Prime Minister reversed his stance and decided to accept the King's appointment of Ahmad Said as Menteri Besar of Terengganu. He also apologised to the King for the public spat over the appointment of the Menteri Besar, explaining that there was no intention to disparage or humiliate the royal household. The apparent backdown was due to threat that the royal household would be prepared to dissolve the state assembly if the motion of no-confidence was initiated against Ahmad Said, which would trigger another election in what is already a climate of discontent towards the ruling party and the possibility of dissenting assemblymen defecting to the opposition.
Ahmad Said is a political science graduate from Universiti Sains Malaysia and was elected as an assemblyman in 1990. He has eight children with two women. His two wives live one kilometer apart.
Dato' Seri Ahmad Said (born 15 February 1957) was the thirteenth Menteri Besar of Terengganu since 2008 until 12 May 2014. He is currently a Barisan Nasional state assemblyman of Kijal, Terengganu. He is a member of United Malays National Organisation (UMNO), who attempted a no-confidence motion against his successor during the recent Terengganu state assembly meeting but failed.
