'''[[File:Mahathir.png]] Mahathir Mohamad''': In 1981, Mahathir was sworn in as prime minister following the resignation of Hussein Onn.
During Mahathir's first tenure as prime minister, Malaysia experienced a period of rapid modernization and economic growth, and his government initiated widespread industry privatization and a series of bold infrastructure projects. Mahathir was accused of several allegations, which are:
* Dictatorship: He used the controversial Internal Security Act (now repealed) to detain activists, non-mainstream religious figures, and political opponents in Operation Lalang (1987) and later his Deputy Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim, whom he fired in 1998. Mahathir's record of curbing civil liberties and his antagonism towards Western interests and economic policy made his relationships with Western nations difficult. He was also responsible for the eventual removal of the Lord President of the Supreme Court, Tun Salleh Abas, triggering the 1988 Constitutional Crisis.
* Anti-Semitism: A strident critic of Israel, Mahathir has been accused of antisemitism since at least as far back as in The Malay Dilemma in which he wrote that "Jews are not merely hook-nosed, but understand money instinctively". Apart from claiming that Jews control the international media, economy and "ruling the world by proxy" and getting "others to fight and die for them", besides disputing the number of Jews killed in The Holocaust.
* Racism: Apart from his controversial statements on the Chinese and the Indian communities in his book The Malay Dilemma despite being of Indian-Muslim descent from Kerala, India, he further said of Najib; "a prime minister who came from 'Bugis pirates' is now leading Malaysia". He remarked, "go back to Sulawesi", which aroused discontent from the Bugis descendants in Malaysia and Indonesia who protested against him, including the royal members of Selangor and Johor.
After quitting [[File:UMNO.png]] UMNO for the second and last time due to his dissatisfaction with Najib Razak, Mahathir established a new party named [[File:PPBM.png]] "Malaysian United Indigenous Party" (PPBM) and co-operated with former parties from Pakatan Rakyat to form [[File:Pakatan Harapan.png]] Pakatan Harapan, which the coalition won in the 14th General Elections in 2018. Despite being appointed as the Prime Minister of Malaysia for the second time, his views on ethnicity, Islam and Jews, remain unchanged.
In February 2020, developments commonly nicknamed the Sheraton Move (Malay: Langkah Sheraton) involved Parliament members from [[File:Barisan_Nasional.png]] Barisan Nasional, [[File:GabunganPartiSarawak.png]] Gabungan Parti Sarawak, [[File:PAS.png]] Parti Islam Se-Malaysia and the "Cartel faction" led by Azmin Ali from [[File:PKR.png]] Parti Keadilan Rakyat saw the ousting of the elected Pakatan Harapan government and the resignation of Mahathir, after 22 months in power. They were replaced with the [[File:Perikatan Nasional.png]] Perikatan Nasional government under Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin. After being sacked from his own party months later, he later formed a new political party, named "Homeland Fighters' Party" (PEJUANG).
