PETALING JAYA: Hard work and good knowledge - these are the two values Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad says are needed for Malaysia to be a successful nation.

"The first life value is hard work. If you are smart, but you don’t read, you won’t succeed; but if you are not so smart, but you work hard to chase knowledge, InsyaAllah, you will," he said this in a post on his official Instagram.
