Dr M: Tawfik never liked me


Making a point: Mahathir delivering his keynote address at the second annual Malaysia’s War On Corruption Symposium.

KUALA LUMPUR: Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad said he was not surprised that G25 member Tawfik Ismail had spoken out against his suggestion to replace the Prime Minister, as the former politician has never liked him.

However, he said Tawfik was “entitled to say what he liked”, and that his views did not represent the stand of G25, a group of prominent Malays espousing moderate values.
