He was appointed on 29 February 2020 and sworn in on 1 March 2020 after [[Mahathir Mohamad]]'s unexpected resignation on 24 February 2020 as part of the Malaysian political crisis. Muhyiddin is Member of Parliament for Pagoh, Member of Johor State Legislative Assembly for Gambir, former deputy president of Pakatan Harapan and current president of Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia. He was Deputy Prime Minister of Malaysia from 2009 till 2015, Deputy Chairman of Barisan Nasional and Deputy President of the [[United Malays National Organisation]] (UMNO), the main component party of the Barisan Nasional (BN) coalition from 2009 to 2016. He is one of the key player in the [[2020 Malaysian political crisis]]. == Biography == Muhyiddin grew up in the state of Johor and joined the state public service after graduating from University of Malaya. He assumed management positions at various state-owned companies. In 1978, he was elected as Member of Parliament for Pagoh. During his term as Member of Parliament, he was appointed Parliamentary Secretary to the minister of foreign affairs, deputy minister of federal territories and later deputy minister of trade and industry. As Johor UMNO chief, he was the state's Menteri Besar from 1986 to 1995. He returned to federal politics in 1995 and was appointed to the Cabinet as Minister of Youth and Sports. He was appointed Minister of Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs after the 1999 general election and became a vice president of UMNO in 2000. Under the premiership of Abdullah Ahmad Badawi, Muhyiddin served as Minister of Agriculture and Agro-based Industry from 2004 to 2008, and then as Minister of International Trade and Industry from 2008 to 2009. In 2008, he contested and won the UMNO deputy presidency, and was appointed Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Education by Prime Minister [[Najib Razak]] in 2009. As Minister of Education, Muhyiddin ended the use of English as the medium of instruction for science and mathematics in public schools. He also attracted controversy after describing himself as "Malay first" when challenged by the Opposition to pronounce himself as "Malaysian first". During Najib's mid-term cabinet reshuffle in July 2015, he was dropped from his position, marking the first incumbent to be left out; in June 2016, he was expelled from UMNO. == Act of Villainy & Controversies == == Trivia == [[Category:Malaysia]] [[Category:Corrupt Officials]] [[Category:Prime Ministers]] [[Category:Asian Villains]] [[Category:Master Manipulator]] [[Category:Elderly]] [[Category:Mastermind]] [[Category:Wealthy]] [[Category:Redeemed]] [[Category:Male]] [[Category:Lawful Evil]] [[Category:Evil vs Evil]] [[Category:On & Off Villains]] [[Category:Arrogant]] [[Category:Xenophobes]] [[Category:Supremacists]] [[Category:Living Villains]]
