Malaysia’s upcoming election this Wednesday could be a major turning point in the country in it’s 14th election since independence.
Prime Minister Najib Razak’s party, Barisan Nasional, has been in power since 1956 but is facing fierce opposition from a former party member.
Former Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad who retired in 2003 after being in charge for 22 years has returned and switched sides to the opposition to contest the current government.
