Do or die, Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad says he wants to try to save Malaysia


Dr Mahathir: 'People asked me to come back, it is not my wish. It will be very selfish of me to think only about myself and not about the country.' — AZHAR MAHFOF/The Star

FORMER two-time prime minister and Parti Pejuang Tanah Air chairman Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad says that even if he were to die in the process, he will do anything to do his duty and save the country from kleptocrats.

Stating that the people do not deserve the governments they’ve had since the overthrow of the Pakatan Harapan government that was voted in in the 14th General Election (GE14) in 2018, the 97-year-old says that he feels duty-bound to fight kleptocrats and those intent on buying votes.
