PUTRAJAYA: Dr Mahathir Mohamad has launched his strongest attack yet on Anwar Ibrahim since the duo made peace four years ago, describing the PKR president as someone who is too impatient to become the prime minister
“Anwar is always crazy for the PM’s post. He cannot be the prime minister… In the past, he had so much support. But now, people support me,” Mahathir said, hours after Muhyiddin Yassin was sworn in as prime minister after getting backing from Barisan Nasional, PAS, GPS and several MPs from PPBM and PKR.“But if people still wanted me to run , and if I had received more votes, I would return.
Mahathir further said he failed to get support to return to the top post due to Anwar’s insistence to be named as Pakatan Harapan’s prime ministerial nominee.Earlier today, PPBM president Muhyiddin Yassin was sworn in as the eighth prime minister, after getting support from Umno, PAS and Sarawak’s GPS.
