PETALING JAYA: Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad’s approval rating as Prime Minister has fallen to 46% from a high of 71% in August last year, according to a poll by Merdeka Centre.The opinion research firm also found that the Pakatan Harapan government’s rating was at 39%, compared to 79% from that same period.
“The decline in ratings is likely attributed to three factors: the condition of the economy as it is perceived by ordinary consumers, the perceived performance of the administration and concerns over Malay rights and privileges, as well as fair treatment of the other races in Malaysia,” it said in a statement yesterday.
