Hasan, 68, was deputy Menteri Besar of Pahang (1995-1999) and the current Rompin Member of Parliament.
He was appointed chairman of Pengurusan Aset Air Bhd last year.
He was chairman of Lembaga Kemajuan Perusahaan Pertanian Negeri Pahang (1990-1999), chairman of Lembaga Pembangunan Wilayah Pahang Tenggara (1995-1998) and chairman of the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) (2015-2018).
