With cartoons by Zunar

The four years following Anwar Ibrahim’s release from prison on 16 May 2018 were as dramatic as it were chaotic.

With rare insider insights, this book uncovers the collapse of the Pakatan Harapan coalition, the turmoil after Mahathirs shocking resignation, and the hard decisions made to secure power.

It reveals how Anwars personal triumph over old rivalries, political betrayals by former allies, and sensational moves to make the nation stronger, eventually led to the hung parliament result of GE15 and his appointment as the tenth prime minister of Malaysia.

Testament to the strength and perseverance of a nation and its leader, this book is a must-read for anyone interested in the political landscape of Malaysia and the incredible journey of a man who never gave up on his dreams of a better future for his country and his people.
