 * [[File:Thaksin.png]] Thaksin Shinawatra: Thaksin Shinawatra is a Thai [[File:Plutocrat.png]] billionaire, the founder of mobile phone operator Advanced info service and IT and telecommunications conglomerate Shin Corporation, a former police officer, the founder of Thai Rak Thai Party (TRT), who served as the Prime Minister of [[File:Thailand.png]] Thailand from 2001 to 2006. Thaksin ran on a populist platform and during his tenure launched programs to reduce poverty, expand infrastructure, promote small and medium-sized enterprises, and extend universal healthcare coverage.

Thaksin and his government did however show authoritarian tendencies on multiple occasions. He declared a "war on drugs" in which more than 2,500 people were killed and took a strong-arm approach against the separatist insurgency in the  Muslim southern provinces. A citizens' movement against Thaksin, called the People's Alliance for Democracy or "Yellow Shirts", launched mass protests, accusing him of  corruption, abuse of power, and  autocratic tendencies.

Thaksin was overthrown in a military coup on 19 September 2006 and was barred from all political activity. He has continued to influence Thai politics from abroad through the Pheu Thai Party, as well as the United Front for Democracy Against Dictatorship or the "Red Shirt" movement which challenges the power of the Military Dictatorship and aims for greater democracy and justice in Thai politics. His younger sister Yingluck Shinawatra was the prime minister of Thailand from 2011 to 2014 until she too was ousted in a military coup.

 Mahathir Mohamad: In 1981, Mahathir was sworn in as prime minister following the resignation of Hussein Onn. During Mahathir's first tenure as prime minister, Malaysia experienced a period of rapid modernization and economic growth, and his government initiated widespread industry privatization and a series of bold infrastructure projects. Mahathir was accused of several allegations, which are: After quitting UMNO for the second and last time due to his dissatisfaction towards Najib Razak, Mahathir established a new party named  "Malaysian United Indigenous Party" (PPBM) and co-operated with former parties from Pakatan Rakyat to form  Pakatan Harapan, which the coalition won in the 14th General Elections in 2018. Despite being appointed as the Prime Minister of Malaysia for the second time, his views on ethnicity, Islam and Jews, remain unchanged. In February 2020, developments commonly nicknamed the Sheraton Move (Malay: Langkah Sheraton) which involved Parliament members from Barisan Nasional,  Gabungan Parti Sarawak,  Parti Islam Se-Malaysia and the "Cartel faction" led by Azmin Ali from  Parti Keadilan Rakyat saw the ousting of the elected Pakatan Harapan government and the resignation of Mahathir, after 22 months in power. They were replaced with the Perikatan Nasional government under Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin. After being sacked from his own party months later, he later formed a new political party, named "Homeland Fighters' Party" (PEJUANG).
 * Dictatorship: He used the controversial Internal Security Act (now repealed) to detain activists, non-mainstream religious figures, and political opponents in Operation Lalang (1987) and later his Deputy Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim, whom he fired in 1998. Mahathir's record of curbing civil liberties and his antagonism towards Western interests and economic policy made his relationships with Western nations difficult. He was also responsible for the eventual removal of the Lord President of the Supreme Court, Tun Salleh Abas, triggering the 1988 Constitutional Crisis.
 * Anti-Semitism: A strident critic of Israel, Mahathir has been accused of antisemitism since at least as far back as in The Malay Dilemma in which he wrote that "Jews are not merely hook-nosed, but understand money instinctively". Apart from claiming that Jews control the international media, economy and "ruling the world by proxy" and getting "others to fight and die for them", besides disputing the number of Jews killed in The Holocaust.
 * Racism: Apart for his controversial statements on the Chinese and the Indian communities in his book The Malay Dilemma despite being of Indian-Muslim descent from Kerala, India, he further said of Najib; "a prime minister who came from 'Bugis pirates' is now leading Malaysia". He remarked, "go back to Sulawesi", which aroused discontent from the Bugis descendants in Malaysia and Indonesia who protested against him, including the royal members of Selangor and Johor.

Although he was a [[File:Socdem.png]] social democrat and governed democratically in most regions of Spain, in the Basque Country region he had a rather authoritarian attitude, where under the nickname "Señor X" he secretly created the "GAL", which were [[File:PolState.png]] police death squads with the aim of destroying the terrorist organization [[File:ETA.png]] ETA.

[[File:Cball-Kazakhstan.png]] Kazakhstan [[File:NurOtan.png]]

 * Kassym-Jomart Tokayev: Kassym-Jomart Tokayev is a Kazakh politician and diplomat who is currently serving as the President of Kazakhstan since 12 June 2019 following the resignation of the country's former President and dictator Nursultan Nazarbayev.

Throughout his presidency, he has enacted several reforms including increasing workers' salaries, reducing corruption, abolishing capital punishment, and decentralizing the local government.

Despite some positive reforms Tokayev's government has maintained much of Nazarbayev's authoritarianism. This was seen during the 2022 Kazakh unrest, also known as "Bloody january", when a series of massive protests broke out in Kazakstan after a sudden sharp increase in liquefied gas prices following the lifting of a government-enforced price cap on 1 January 2022. The demonstrations quickly turned into violent riots, fueled by rising dissatisfaction with the government and economic inequality. Tokayev responded with a state of emergency and called for military intervention by the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) – a military alliance consisting of Russia and other former Soviet States. Tokayev ordered troops to use deadly force against protesters, authorizing instructions to "shoot to kill" without warning at anyone demonstrating, calling protesters "bandits and terrorists." Up to 227 people were killed and several thousand were arrested.

After a week of violent unrest and brutal crackdowns, President Tokayev promised reform and acknowledged public discontent over income inequality, and informed that the vehicle gas prices caps of 50 tenge per litre had been restored for 6 months.
