SELANGOR, MALAYSIA - NOVEMBER 02: Former Malaysia Prime Minister and founder of the Gerakan Tanah Air (Homeland Movement) coalition Mahathir Mohamad laughs as he leaves a candidate announcement ceremony ahead of the 15th General Election at Bangi Convention Centre on November 02, 2022 in Selangor, Malaysia. At age 97, former Malaysia Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad is the countryâ€™s longest-serving PM, andÂ the worldâ€™s oldest leader. He held the post for 24 years, from 1981 to 2003 and then from 2018 to 2020. Being one of the regionâ€™s best known political figures, the two-time Malaysia PM is campaigning for his final election, where he will be contesting as the head of a new coalition â€˜Gerakan Tanah Airâ€™ (Homeland Movement) and defending his parliamentary seat aged nearly 100, placing him in the rare category of politicians who are still contributing to their countries at an advanced age. With the support of his wife, Siti Hasmah, and an array of young operatives who help him understand the younger parts of the electorate, Mahathirâ€™s team says his mission is to complete the struggle to steer Malaysia away from the destructive political dynamics that have fueled corruption and division in the nation. Malaysia will hold its general elections on November 19, to decide which coalition should lead their country for the next four years. (Photo by Annice Lyn/Getty Images)
