If Anwar Ibrahim were to take over as prime minister from Dr Mahathir Mohamad, the PKR president will need some runway to consolidate Pakatan Harapan as he will be the one leading the coalition into the 15th general election.

This is according to political analyst Mohd Azizuddin Mohd Sani, an associate professor with Universiti Utara Malaysia's College of Law, Government and International Studies...

One analyst says Anwar needs PM transition to happen at least two years before the next election.
