where does this leave mr anwar and his supporters?e minister, which is a role that has eluded him for 20 years? i think dr mahathir is dead set against mr anwar taking power from, well, from dr mahathir, and from anwar‘s side he is perhaps a little bit anxious to take over as soon as possible. that is why you see this sort of, in a sense, i would described it as a counter—coup. not a traditional coup d'etat, but a counter—coup nonetheless, trying to forestall mr anwar‘s effort to unseat dr mahathir. thousands of fans have attended a memorial in los angeles for kobe bryant. the legendary us basketball player died in a helicopter crash last month — along with his 13—year—old daughter gianna, and seven others. the service was held at the staples arena, where kobe bryant played for the la lakers. the singer beyonce performed with a choir, and wore a gold suit, the colour of the los angeles lakers — bryant's team for two decades. among the speakers was kobe's wife vanessa who spoke of losing two of the people most dear to her. god knew the

supporters to team up with opposition parties to force the transition of power to his name successor anwar abraham let's go live to florence louis and kuala lumpur so i'm florence what have you been able to learn is this as i said news has come out. well we learnt that mahathir mohamad submitted his letter of resignation to the king of malaysia as about 1 pm local time this afternoon now it's not yet known whether the king has accepted the resignation but according to constitutional experts because the king's role is largely a ceremonial role he will have to then what happens next is also a little bit unclear the king has to appoint someone who commands the majority or confidence of parliament so then it becomes a numbers game but we also have the information now that mahathir is the party has left the ruling coalition and the rumors are that this party is going to team up with other parties to form and not the coalition so they could still come on the majority in parliament and they could still very much be in power now and so that's the state of politics in malaysia at the moment but the

of them nasir and anwar sadat both both died in office wanted natural causes and one was assassinated but not neither had anything to do with the military. and hosni mubarak was overthrown but in but the while the military participate in that overthrow it was under enormous pressure from the public to do so that's not to say that they didn't see their own interests in doing so because of fears of. mark son taking over and he said figure that was outside the military and also had been in power in a civilian business elite that was that was tied to the regime but it we we have a very limited number of examples to work with with respect to morsi there was always tension between the brotherhood in the security apparatus that never went away and so it's not really an issue of getting comfortable so much is that there was never a comfort he might have overestimated the extent to which they would fall in line it would be almost certainly did but i think that that that it was something on his part was flawed. ok we'll leave it there timothy always good to get your clarity on a story out of eg

election in 2018 to defeat a mill the ruling coalition agreed that mahathir would hand of a power to anwar by may this year 94 year old mahathir the world's oldest prime minister hasn't given a reason for his resignation but analysts say they don't see eye to eye on a number of issues including a decade's old policy to grant preferential treatment to the mill a muslim majority such as in jobs and home ownership malaysia we are really just dangerous so the military jargon very worried that the chinese. in the oil and news division was getting too powerful so for the past 2 years the opposition are not and past and making the argument there. the previous government was essentially a mill a front controlled by the chinese and built all we have to overthrow it to measure it becomes a government again the king has appointed mahathir to stay on as interim prime minister while the new cabinet is formed to govern it has to show it has the support of 112 of 222 members of parliament mahathir could well stay on if he has enough support from m.p.'s even if it means a change in coalition partners civi

in that sense it could be seen as a victory for anwar.e case, we will have to see. things are always fluid in malaysian politics. a lot of horse trading back-and-forth. a lot of different variables. a lot of people who want power. so, that could always change and anwar has consistently been denied power over the years, even when it seemed likely. but so far it looks like he might emerge as the designated successor for the time being. whether he will actually take power tonight remains to be seen. we are not getting that indication from the party. he has said he has been betrayed. who has betrayed him? mahathir? azmin? where's the betrayal coming from? unknownsof the big playsnow is what role he in all of this. he told anwar, the finance minister, the earlier coalition partner, that he would not join him. anwar said he believed him. and were optimistic lately through all the blame on him. whether he would make this move without mahathir, who knows. so yes, that is a big question and we will try to find out the answer. haslinda: bloomberg's

anwar ibrahim isn't buying that.s party is divided. the popularity it had in the last election eroded by malaysia's economic troubles. you have economic troubles. you have economic growth, but we just haven't caught up with cost of living. and so you have a great degree of discontent, that... particularly among the malay population. particularly among the malay population, particular among the young. the economy is not generating enoughjobs that economy is not generating enough jobs that pay well. drive out on the capital's futuristic highways and you reach humbler neighbourhoods inhabited by ethnic malays. many, like mohammed, are disappointed by unfulfilled economic promises. right now, the government isn't looking out for ordinary people, for the malays, he told me. a lot of them are very low income. there isn't enough to cover daily expenses. yet there were other promises from that election, of a cleaner, multiracial government, that these younger malaysians fear are being lost in all the political intrigue. it's

now mubarak was elected off to the former egypt's president anwar sadat was assassinated and that was an assassination witness personally and it made a huge impact on him he spent much of this nearly 3 decades in power making sure that the islamists would never come to a political power base and at the same time ensuring that the police and the security apparatus would remain firm it's a major that of one stage there was something like one police officer for 14 gyptian which is no mean feat out of a country of some $95000000.00 not we as journalists experienced some of that police crackdown we will portion from talking square there was a lot of tear gas that was used at the time i remember reporting from different live positions and having laser beams shown on me as a means of intimidation and it reached a peak where almost 900 anti-government protesters were killed by the police forces and that was something that mubarak was tried and charged with he was found guilty of killing. what least ordering the killing of these protesters in 2012 death was military. now he leaves behind him a

supporters to team up with opposition parties to walk the transition of power to his name successor anwar abraham let's go live to florence louie in kuala lumpur for us what else have we learned since this news broke. well mahathir in a state role is the same as when the prime minister's office confirming that mahathir had indeed tended allows letter of resignation to the king well there was no reason given for the resignation but we've since heard in the last couple of minutes the finance minister coming out and saying that mahathir attended his resignation because he did not want. you to not want the party to have to work with i'm not now i'm you know is the party that was in power in malaysia for decades it had ruled malaysia since the country gained independence from british in 1957 and it was only ousted in the last general election in 2018 its leader was its former leader was a former prime minister of this country not your brother who's been accused or who's been charged and is on trial for corruption he's been accused of stealing billions of dollars from a state investment fund no

who came you know came into power as a result of a traumatic experience after former after president anwar sadat was assassinated he was his vice president he was never initially elected and he left it also at a moment where the nation was having a you know a moment of significant awakening and as ruth mentioned he's a very polarizing figure because in the 34 years after he was removed egypt has seen levels of instability whether on the security front are they kind of different that made people very very nostalgic actually they said you know he was an autocrat but he did there was some sort of stability that he had provided and we have more on his life and his vocal now for our viewers i just want to have a listen and then we'll get reaction from both of you. my posts may assure you. it was one last triumph for hosni mubarak egypt's former president was acquitted off through a trial the last e.t.a. is the judges found him innocent of involvement in the killing of protest is during the 2011 arab spring uprising that ended his 30 year rule his career ended with a revolution it began with an

anwar ibrahim has said you know he's got the support of his coalition but they're now down to 3 parties instead of there about 11 politicians from his party why that's been sacked or resign means he's down by about 3 dozen politicians so it's not clear whether or not the support you have the majority in on him to actually be nominated as the next prime minister and then take a look at what mahathir has said so he's saying that he's got enough support in on the bench he will stay on as the prime minister while his position is a bit shaky on that it was 24 hours ago when he proposed that we would ports emerge about he was proposing to lead a unity government then the main opposition party known as you know this is a party that had planned over the weekend to to to form an alliance that was going to take over they've known come out to say that they're not going to support a unity government so if mahathir is going to propose a unity government and himself as prime minister he may not have the support of so it's also not clear whether north he has the numbers to do that but the main grouse

corruption economic stagnation and political repression and now he came to power after the assassination of anwar sadat he saw that us as a nation up close and he spent much of his nearly 3 decades in power making sure that islamic extremists would never come to power and that a police state would ensue now we felt some of that heavy handedness when i reported from tahrir square in the early part of 2011 myself and the other journalists often felt the brunt of tear gas that was sprayed at us and this sometimes 1000000 protesters who came out to the streets at the same time i would often have a laser beam shining into my face i remember asking some of the protesters what they felt would be the legacy of mubarak and they say that he had managed to unite egyptians ironically unite them against his own leadership there are hundreds was 6 people in the last of my time when i was you can see heating oil and occupation i people's voices here are loud but they're being drawn down by 16 is it me 21 is trying to hit me but it is not going down without a fine small break was forced to resign and that resign

the hammers from the opposition to try and ensure a new government that excludes mr anwar so i think that's what has transpired and and this certainly we are will send little to individuals moving forward it was definitely damaged trust ok so you see you don't think that that this partnership between dr mahathir and unwavering him will continue in the future i think you'd really but only because there is probably meant ism on the part was men i think for mr knightley brame because he does not support executive position in government he does not have the leavers over all the over the national machinery and so i think it's much harder for him to influence the outcome but he is you know 25 years younger than dr mahathir so perhaps a little while longer and use this time to rebuild his pipe the u.n. support 'd and prepare for the next election which we are incidentally it will be coming in about 2 and a half or 3 years back so he very meaty doesn't have enough support to now a this particular moment to form a governing coalition on his own with with him as prime minister. yes i think tha
