He was born on May 15, 1947 in Muar, Johor to his father Muhammad Yassin Muhammad, an Islamic theologian and cleric, and his mother Hajjah Khadijah Kassim.
His foray into politics began when he joined Umno as a member of the Pagoh division in 1971 and quickly rose in rank to become Johor Menteri Besar, serving from 1986 to 1995.
He has held various positions in the cabinet of the federal government, including minister of youth and sports (1995-1999), minister of internal trade and consumer affairs (1999-2004), minister of agriculture and agri-food industry (2004-2008), and minister of international trade and industry (2008-2009).
He then served as deputy prime minister and minister of education from 2009 to 2015 under the mandate of Malaysia’s sixth prime minister, Datuk Seri Najib Razak.
Muhyiddin was back in the spotlight this year when he became the country’s eighth prime minister after being sworn in on March 2.
