ANWAR IBRAHIM | “Never Underestimate the Wisdom of the Masses”

Anwar Ibrahim on BBC. Anwar Ibrahim, who will be 71 on August 10 is a geriatric laden with health issues. He is designated to take over the premiership in one or two years but the Young Turks are impatient. They want both Mahathir and Anwar to get out of the way of more energetic and dynamic generation of younger leaders, according to Daim Zainuddin. Anwar is a persuasive and experiencec orator. He would do well to groom the likes of Rafizi Ramli and Syed Saddiq, who represent the post-2020 Malaysia.
