Dr Mahathir hits out sarcastically at calls to liberalise auto industry

PETALING JAYA: Former prime minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad (pic) has taken a dig at calls to liberalise the automotive industry.

In his latest blog posting on Thursday, he sarcastically stated that it was better for workers in the automotive industry to lose their jobs so that the consumers could buy imported cars at a cheaper price.
