Abstract

The article is devoted to the results of the general elections held on November 19, 2022 in Malaysia, as a result of which a coalition of the Hope Bloc, the United Malay National Organization and two parties from Sabah and Sarawak came to power, and the charismatic and energetic politician Anwar Ibrahim became the country’s new prime minister. The long and difficult path to power of Anwar, who started the reform movement in the late 1990s and whom the ruling bloc repeatedly tried to eliminate from political life, including by sending him to jail, to the point that many political observers have already put an end to the career of a politician, is analyzed. Despite this, Anwar was able to persevere, unite the opposition around his People’s Justice Party and succeed in the elections. Now he faces an equally difficult task of doing everything for the prosperity of his country and people.
