A loss of perks and face for Dr M


PETALING JAYA: Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad’s removal as Petronas adviser may not hurt him too much financially – after all, he had wanted to step down before – but it could deprive him of many perks and leave him embarrassed.

The adviser received an allowance of between RM12,000 and RM16,000 a month, which would probably be small change for a man of Dr Mahathir’s stature.
