PONTIAN: Some 1,000 people, including Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad, gathered for the funeral of Tanjung Piai MP Datuk Dr Md Farid Md Rafik (pic).
Dr Mahathir, who cut short his programme in Cyberjaya to rush for the funeral, was at a loss for words over news of Dr Md Farid’s sudden death, which will pave way for a by-election.
