Malay, Chinese and Indian Pakatan Harapan (PH) supporters shouted, “Hidup rakyat! Kita boleh!” (Long live the people! We can!) as the news they had been waiting for finally came true.
The supporters were outside Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim’s office in Bukit Gasing when news came that he would be sworn in as Malaysia’s 10th prime minister.
Among them are siblings Angie Ng Bee On,70, and her younger sister Ng Bee Chooi, 63.

We feel happy that he became PM. We hope it will be a fair government that can fulfil the election promises.

International media also heralded Anwar’s triumph after two decades as opposition leader.
It is hard to overstate the rocky road for Anwar Ibrahim to be Malaysia's PM – once the heir apparent to Mahathir, then jailed by him, came close several times but now has arrived. https://t.co/XHFhibcFT2
