Veteran Malaysian politician Anwar Ibrahim has been named the new prime minister of the country. With this, Ibrahim marked a spectacular comeback 25 years after his first shot for the top office in the 1990s, after which he was sacked and jailed. On Thursday, Malaysia's King Sultan Abdullah Sultan Ahmad Shah announced Ibrahim would be officially sworn in as the 10th prime minister.
