Interim PM asks to set aside party politics to form a gov't that ‘does not side with any party’ and prioritises national interests.

Interim Prime Minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad has broken his silence over the collapse of the Pakatan Harapan government and the way forward.First of all, let me apologise to all Malaysian citizens as the political condition of the country has been in shambles and may have caused concern about you.

There are many reasons why I resigned but it is enough for me to say that I feel as if I have the support from all quarters till I am unable to decide who I should choose.I resigned because I do not see power and position as the"be all and end all" or my goal. To me, power and position is a means to an end, or a tool to reach an objective. And the objective of all of us for the best of the country.

The chance to change the leadership remains. Except in my opinion, because I am supported by both sides, the time for me to resign has yet to arrive. I am willing to accept Umno members who left Umno and joined other parties. But if Umno joins this unity government as a party, this I am unable to accept. Therefore I was compelled to resign.

If only he left with dignity, acknowledging his term has ended and passed the baton to Anwar. Perhaps, he could have salvage what little respect he had then.

Hope atleast 90 % of Politicians have the same mind to work x country

What a bloody mess. Who wants to be PM for the next 2 years anyway? With the Covid virus and upcoming recession, when the next election comes, you’ll be blamed for it anyway 🙄
