“Last year he returned from seclusion to run for office on an anti-corruption platform, leading a new political party to a shocking victory over incumbent Najib Razak.”
“Mahathir is now tackling the endemic corruption plaguing the country’s institutions.”
“He is also moving to protect judicial independence and press freedom, recognizing that they help keep a democracy honest.”
