The Economist is shocked that Anwar is PM

IT is not surprising that The Economist is still in a state of shock over the hazy event in Malaysia given how many foreign media outlets had similarly expressed their shock and disbelief when Pakatan Harapan leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim took his oath  of office as the 10th Prime Minister of Malaysia.

The online version of the magazine, in an opinion piece, said that it thought that there were many versions (four to be exact) of Anwar and is still confused about which one will rule Malaysia.

In contrast, Anwar Ibrahim has only ever been known to the people of Malaysia in the form that we saw him in when he assumed office, humbled by the joy of his supporters and appreciative of his coalition partners for giving him the position that has eluded him for years.
