Gerakan Tanah Air (GTA, Homeland Movement or Homeland Party) is an alliance of Malay political parties, founded in August 2022 by former Prime Minister of Malaysia Mahathir Mohamad.[2][3]

Mahathir had announced during the coalition's founding that GTA will contest in the next Malaysian general election against the incumbent ruling coalition Barisan Nasional.[4] On 6 September 2022, the coalition submitted registration documents to the Registrar of Societies (RoS) to apply for registration.[5] The coalition failed to win any parliament seat in the 2022 General Election.[6]
