Malaysia's Minister for Youth and Sport - Syed Saddiq
Can Asia's youngest cabinet minister force change in a country run by the world's oldest Prime Minister? Is it time to skip a generation?
Until last year, Malaysia hadn't experienced a real change of government in the sixty years since independence.

Now in his 90s, he says next year he'll hand over to a former rival in his 70s. Malaysia鈥檚 Minister of Youth and Sport, Syed Saddiq, is the youngest cabinet minister in Asia at 26. Is it time to skip a generation?
