With the latest episode, there is a “political war” between Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin and former Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad in which the latter seeks to remove the former from his position in the government. Muhkriz and his supporters in the party have been very minimal despite him challenging Muhyiddin for the presidency.

But it is obvious Dr Mahathir will not rest until Muhyiddin falls. Likewise Muhyiddin may feel uneasy with Dr Mahathir behind his back plotting. For Dr Mahathir, this may be his final political battle to correct whatever it is he feels is wrong with Muhyiddin’s leadership. If he loses, this may be his end in politics and he may even lose his legacy.His son Mukhriz does not seem to have what it takes to fight in a complicated and sophisticated Malay political battle, which explain how Kedah fell without him knowing.
