92 year old Mahathir Mohamad shows great energy and drive to win election and stake claim to be PM of Malaysia

Extraordinary! A 90+ years old leader is staking claim to be PM (again) and courageously talks of restoring 'rule of law' in this press conference! And he cuts his jokes as well! I have not followed Malaysian politics and so don't know much about it. Further, I prefer to take a publicly neutral stand on politics of India (my country) as well as other countries.

But as a beneficiary, lover and supporter of democracy, I do find this event to be very remarkable. Congratulations to Dr. Mahathir Mohamad, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mahathir_Mohamad, for the energy and drive he is showing at this advanced age, as he is set to become the world's oldest country-leader. https://edition.cnn.com/2018/05/10/asia/malaysia-election-mahathir-victory-intl/index.html.
