Dr M: I'm just an 'ordinary citizen' who wants to debate Najib


KUALA LUMPUR: Admitting to be an "ordinary citizen", Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad (pic) says he remains keen on debating Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak on current issues.

"I am an ordinary citizen now. But lots of people seem to be quite supportive of my idea (to debate Najib). When I said that I was alone, they said 'No, no you are not alone.' I don't know whether they said this because I paid them money," he quipped to laughter from the crowd.
