The journal studies this time will examine the differences in the way and pattern of government of the two Prime Ministers of Malaysia, namely between Tan Sri Dato '(DR) Haji Mahiaddin Bin Md Yasin where he became the 8th Prime Minister of Malaysia on 29 February 2020 and resigned on 16 August 2021 after another struggle in Malaysian politics and Tun Dr. Mahathir Bin Mohamad. The first time Tun Dr. Mahathir Bin Mohamad as a prime minister on 16 July 1981 until 30 October 2003 and the second on 10 May 2018 until he resigned on 24 February 2020. These two dates are in different eras. But we will study it more specifically in terms of socio-economics. The uniqueness of this study is because Tun Dr. Mahathir Bin Mohamad has been the Prime Minister of Malaysia twice and both in different eras. It is common knowledge that the political system in Malaysia is based on democracy. The top leadership is elected fairly and listens to the voices of all players in politics as well as the voices of the people. The goal of these two leaders is between Tan Sri Dato '(DR) Haji Mahiaddin Bin Md Yasin and Tun Dr. Mahathir Bin Mohamad is the same, which is to develop the country's economy and further maintain the well -being of the people while developing the country to be in line with other developed countries. However, the ideas and thoughts between these two leaders are definitely different in all aspects even though the goals are the same. That is the difference that will be described in this study.
