The first electric car showcase will be launched in October by Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad and the vehicles will be designed and manufactured for both local and export markets.

PUTRAJAYA: The Federal Government will intervene in Johor's policy to maintain the youth age cap at 40, if it is found that the decision was made under "palace influence", says Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad.

"The palace has no right to interfere. If we found that this is the result of palace interference, then we will cancel the decision," said the Prime Minister after chairing a Bersatu supreme council meeting here on Monday (July 15).
