Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad

KUALA LUMPUR: The government may need to devise new taxes to pay off its debts, says Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad because the previous administration left many problems that have turned Malaysia from an Asian tiger into a small kitten. 

Another way is to sell some of the government's land to locals in order to raise new sources of funds.
