Mahathir's Legacy: A Complex Web of Power, Corruption, and Perception The recent documentary about Malaysia's longest serving prime minister, Mahathir Mohamad, has sparked a renewed interest in his tumultuous tenure.
The film's silver medal win at a German media festival is a testament to the enduring fascination with the complex figure that is Mahathir.
