anwar sued him for defamation.it is the question of whether somebody who has been so prominent, behaved in the past, can change and whether they can be a catalyst for change or not. and you can understand, can't you, anwar may be just a little bit cautious about believing that he will really get power from a man who not only did that to him, whose regime played such a part in his imprisonment and all of the rest of it that happened to him, even though he was eventually pardoned by the king, was described by amnesty international during his time in prison as a prisoner of conscience, a man who was there not for the crime he committed but because of his politically inconvenience to the government led by mahathir. isn't it hard to imagine mahathir handing over power to a man who just five years ago said he wasn't even qualified to be a chief minister of one of the malay states, never mind the prime minister? if this coalition is governed based on caution, we would never be able to win the election. the reason we were

member states and it's that states where when a states like me anwar is either unable or unwilling to protect the rights and livelihood of its citizens lives of its citizens the international community has an obligation responsibility to step in with effective the action and thus far action has not been affected and therefore that responsibility to protect on has not been upheld by that on the international community just to remind us. benjamin the bangladeshi government and myanmar have come up with every patch to send back some of these rohingya refugees to myanmar but of course as we heard there from the special repertory the situation in myanmar doesn't allow them to return right now what precisely is happening on the ground and why are many of the refugees refusing to return and what would they like to see happen before they're able to go back. well part of the problem is there's very little to which to return in the wake of their departure or in the midst of their departure so much of what they had was either destroyed in the cases of their houses it was it was killed or slaught

ibrahim who was sitting in jail at the time but he worked to get anwar pardoned and anwar now has a seat in parliament, so he can become prime minister. mahatear is 93 years old. in two years, he will be 95. he is very spry. but he is an old man. so the question is, is he going to consolidate his power and make moves to hand off power to anwar ibrahim. that is a really difficult question to answer because there are a lot of coalition dynamics within mahatear's coalition that are tricky so he's got to focus on that. and whether he is really prepared to hand off the rein os anwar is a question that completely divides malaysia's scholars. and i don't have a strong, i don't know, i don't know how to predict that one. it is really tough to say. but it something to really watch this year. >> right here in the front. second row. then over there, bill. >> dave brown from, a question for chris. a little vague from what we mean by a leader having the best year ever, but the meeting you referred to on monday was a very extraordinary one. yes, xi is in control of it, but what's the issue? manag
