Datuk Rosnah Abdul Rashid Shirlin (born 10 July 1972) is a Malaysian politician. She is currently the Member of the Parliament of Malaysia for the Papar constituency in Sabah, representing the United Malays National Organisation (UMNO) party. She is a Deputy Minister for Works in the Barisan Nasional coalition government.
Rosnah was born on 10 July 1972 in Kota Belud, Sabah, Malaysia. Her father was an engineer while her mother was a housewife. Rosnah married Fadli Juanas on 11 July 2008. Rosnah and her family live in her hometown of Papar, Sabah.
Rosnah was elected to Parliament in the 2004 election, after being nominated by Barisan Nasional to replace its incumbent member Osu Sukam. Her election was unopposed. Before her election, she was a lawyer, and the head of UMNO's Puteri (female youth) wing in Sabah.
In March 2009 she became the head of UMNO's women's youth wing ("UMNO Puteri") and was subsequently appointed Deputy Minister for Health by incoming Prime Minister Najib Razak.
On 16 May 2013, after the 13th General Election, she was shifted from Deputy Health Minister to Deputy Works Minister. Also in 2013, she relinquished the leadership of UMNO Puteri due to her exceeding the organisation's age limit, and was elected to the Supreme Council of the full party.
