He left UMNO with Mahathir and they founded BERSATU in [1] Mahathir and his BERSATU memberships were terminated and they founded PEJUANG in He is one of the two Menteris Besar of Malaysia who represented two different political parties and coalitions.

Early life, education and early career

Mukhriz was born in Kedah, Malaysia[citation needed] and he is the fourth child among four siblings from the marriage of Mahathir Mohamad and Siti Hasmah Mohamad Ali.

Mukhriz attended Sophia University, in Tokyo, where he received a bachelor's degree in business management (assumed in ).

He later received another bachelor's degree in marketing after graduating from Boston University (assumed in ).[2][3][4]

Mukhriz has held various posts in several business firms, which include Opcom Holdings,[5][6] Kosmo Tech[7] as well as the Malaysian Franchise Association.[8] He was also the executive director of Perdana Peace Global Organisation.[9] He served as Chairman of the Board of Directors of Malaysian cancer vaccine company, Bioven.[10]

Political career

Pre-parliamentary career

In , he won election to the executive council of UMNO's youth wing, by garnering the highest number of votes of any candidate.[11][12] He was also seen as a potential candidate for being the deputy chief of UMNO Youth, but he later withdrew his candidacy.[13]

Mukhriz was noted for his continuous efforts in speaking for his father in the events of the rift between Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi and his father.[14][15] In , his father lost a bid to be elected as one of seven delegates from Kubang Pasu to UMNO's general assembly; Mukhriz was elected as one of the seven.[16]

Federal parliamentarian (–)

In the Malaysian general election, Mukhriz contested and won the Jerlun Parliament Seat.[17][18] Before this, he offered himself to contest in Langkawi Parliament Seat but was rejected by 85 out of 91 UMNO branches in Langkawi.[19] However, many Langkawi leaders backed him later.

The Jerlun UMNO division welcomed Mukhriz to contest in their Parliament seat and promised to give him full support in the election.[20]

In , Mukhriz contested as a candidate for the new UMNO Youth Chief after the wing's predecessor, Datuk Seri Hishamuddin Hussein released his position.

He was rivalled by Khairy Jamaluddin and Khir Toyo. Nominations for the posts coincided with division meetings which took place between October and November Mukhriz was initially seen as leading in nominations compared to Khairy but eventually lost in the final vote count.

However, a controversy was sparked when Khairy was allowed to contest for the post even though he was found guilty for being involved with money politics by the UMNO Disciplinary Board,[21] while others who were found guilty for the same offence, such as Mohd Ali Rustam who was supposed to contest for the UMNO Vice-President post, were not allowed to contest for their respective posts.

However, Khairy denied the allegation, as stated in his blog.[22]

First term as Menteri Besar Kedah (–)

In the election, Mukhriz gave up his seat in federal parliament to contest the Kedah State Assembly seat of Ayer Hitam. The move was taken with a view to becoming the Chief Minister of Kedah if the Barisan Nasional coalition could defeat the Pakatan Rakyat (PR) state government led by Azizan Abdul Razak.

Mukhriz won Ayer Hitam (defeating the Pan-Malaysian Islamic Party (PAS) incumbent), Barisan Nasional reclaimed the state government, and Mukhriz was sworn in as Chief Minister on 6 May, the day after the election, in the presence of his father.[23]

1MDB Scandal

Main article: 1Malaysia Development Berhad scandal

In January , UMNO Kedah leaders, led by Ahmad Bashah Md Hanipah, declare the loss of confidence towards Mukhriz due to "his inability to maintain a united party leadership".[24] The move is widely believed to be a reprisal orchestrated by the Prime Minister Najib Razak's camp in UMNO, which was increasingly infuriated by Mahathir's and Mukhriz's criticisms against Najib.[25] He resigned on 3 February after losing the majority of support among the assemblymen.[26] Ahmad Bashah, who is also the Bakar Bata assemblyman, succeeded him as the 12th Chief Minister of Kedah.[27] Daughter of Mukhriz, Meera Alyanna Mukhriz expressed her gratitude to the rakyat of Kedah for giving her father a chance to serve the state and its people.[28]

Mukhriz was expelled from UMNO together with Muhyiddin Yassin in June [29]

Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia (BERSATU) ()

In August , Mukhriz together with Mahathir Mohamad, Muhyiddin Yassin, Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman, Kamarulazman Habibur Rahman, Anina Saadudin and Akhramsyah Sanusi formed Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia (PPBM or BERSATU).[30]

Mukhriz was the Deputy President of BERSATU and the Chairman of Pakatan Harapan in Kedah.

On 31 March , Mukhriz has been appointed chairperson of the Muda Agricultural Development Authority (Mada).

On 29 January , Mukhriz said Kedah recorded a revenue of RM million in , surpassing the target of RM million set by the state government last year.[34]

On 17 May , he resigned as Chief Minister of Kedah mentioning he couldn't hold on to majority amongst his state assemblymen and thus relinquished his position as Chief Minister of Kedah.[35]

Personal life

Mukhriz married Norzieta Zakaria on 14 November ,[36] and together, they have four children.[13]

On 27 August , Mukhriz admitted that it was his daughter and son-in-law who were recently arrested by the police for breaching the recovery movement control order (MCO) rules.[37][38][39] On 28 August, Mukhriz's daughter, Meera Alyanna Mukhriz, has apologised for breaching recovery movement-control order (RMCO) procedures by staying out past the 12pm closing time at an eatery.[40][41]
