Dr M chides Opposition MPs for 'supporting' Perikatan govt over Budget 2021


KUALA LUMPUR: After failing to derail Budget 2021 in Parliament, Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad has chided other Opposition MPs for purportedly “supporting” the Perikatan Nasional government.

“When there were only 13 Opposition MPs who stood up to reject Budget 2021, a bloc vote could not take place because it needed 15 MPs," said the former prime minister.
