Muhammad Leo Michael Toyad bin Abdullah (Jawi: محمد ليو ميکائيل توياد بن عبدالله; born 11 April 1950) is a Malaysian politician. He is the former Member of the Parliament of Malaysia for the Mukah constituency in Sarawak, representing the Parti Pesaka Bumiputera Bersatu (PBB) in the ruling Barisan Nasional (BN) coalition.[1]

Toyad was first elected to Parliament in the 1982 election. In 1987, he became Deputy Minister for Foreign Affairs, appointed by Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad.[2] After the 2004 election, he joined the full ministry of Prime Minister Abdullah Badawi as Minister for Tourism.[3][4] He was dropped from the cabinet in 2006, in a move that surprised observers, to be replaced by Tengku Adnan Tengku Mansor.[4] Ahead of the 2008 election he indicated his intention to retire, but he recontested and won his seat, both in that poll and again in 2013.[5]
