据权威政治风险新闻与分析刊物《全球风险洞察》（Global Risk Insights），第14届大选会有2个使大马政局变天的因素，即前首相敦马哈迪领导反对党和一马发展公司（1MDB）丑闻。
它说，马哈迪要推翻他曾领导的政党是关键，因为马哈迪在92岁高龄加入反对党，并与当初被他关进牢里的前副首相拿督斯瑞安华合作。
它说，反对党犹如一盘散沙，而马哈迪被视为团结各政党的人物，且他能协助盟党进入反对党无法渗入的乡村选区。
另一个使大马政局变天的因素是纳吉被1MDB丑闻缠身，尽管纳吉不断否认。
The Malaysian general
election campaigning season has been shaken up by the return of Mahathir
Mohamad, a former prime minister who intends to challenge the party he once
led. His return may be a key factor in uniting the opposition and reviving
allegations of corruption against the current prime minister.
A victory for Pakatan Haraban
would be a sign of disillusionment with the status quo among voters.
Perceptions of economic well being and representation, not just corruption, will
define voter outlooks. If the Malaysian economy weakens voters may turn to
Pakatan Haraban. Reforming entrenched interests and cracking down on corruption will
continue to be a challenge regardless of who wins the election.
原文：按 Corruption
allegations take center stage in Malaysian general election campaign
But don’t forget: GST, FGV, 1MDB,
PR1MA, BR1M, TN50………………….LTH, KWAP, PNB, EPF.
我思故我在！关我什么事？
