PETALING JAYA: Having turned 96 on Saturday (July 10), Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad's birthday wish is for Malaysia to reach its goal of becoming a developed nation.

Dr Mahathir - who is the country's longest serving prime minister having held the position from 1981 to 2003 and then from May 2018 to February 2020 - also expressed his gratitude for being given the time and opportunity to serve the nation.

"I apologise if what I did has offended any parties.I pray that this beloved country will be developed by all until we reach our objective of becoming a developed nation," he added on Saturday. Veteran journalist Kadir Jasin, who was Dr Mahathir's media and communications advisor during the Pakatan Harapan era, dedicated a short and sweet post to him on Facebook.

We thought we were in for a fantastic change, a new dawn. for the first time in a long time, so many Malaysians came together regardless of race religion. Little did we know we are in for a change for the worse. How do we even surface from this muck?

Ha ha ..with a village and corrupt mentality shown by politicians past ministers we will never achieve this..

Pray for your soul

I hope you're reading the comments. Everything you did takes us further away from developed status and closer to failed state. We're resembling Syria rather than Singapore, which started this journey together with us. History books will not be kind to your legacy.

Prayers don’t get us there. Competent, accountable, honest, meritocratic Malaysians do.

Do you remember your 2020 WAWASAN?

Enough lah.

Politics aside, bless him

You have 22years to do that, yet you fail. And now you prays? For what

Eh…org mati sebab covid lah,hospitals overloaded.

You fucked us up. Hypocrite. By not giving up the post of pm to Anwar, as agreed.

Fat hopes when incompetency is the norm.

The gap have widened. Our GNI/capita Atlas method is now at 2013 level.

You should pray for politicians get their priorities right : serve the rakyat. Without this your prayer for a developed nation will never come to pass

It will never be if they keep fighting like this…

Isn’t He the mastermind behind the infamous Sheraton move which paved the way for this incompetent government. As a result 6000 ++ deaths. Yet “Pray for Malaysia to reach developed nation status” while people are dying. What a shame!

You have failed the nation

At 96, you should know better, DrM. Imagine if Lee Kuan Yew said he was only ‘…to serve my religion, race…’

Yes sure, pray and hope God will make Malaysia a developed nation while a greedy incompetent bunch plots profits and practice nepotism and exploit the ppl. At 96, and still has humour funnybirthdaywish

You brought to develop level and you itself damage it, what more to say.

Allah SWT memberitahu Muslim tentang Pakistan, tetapi mereka tidak mengerti; bahkan orang Pakistan-pun banyak yang tidak mengerti. Qasim melihat bahwa Pakistan memiliki kepentingan sentral dalam Islam di masa depan umat Islam. Pelajari tentang ini di

Wish you well, but just stay away.

Developed by whose standards? We were better off as a third world country. Less global interference. Less of other countries lecturing me how to live my life. Everything was great until 2019.

At long as we practise, racism, Islam and ketuanan melayu. We are fucked.

Malaysia will never reach developed nation status as long as the politicians continue to spew Racism & Fanaticism .....

Happy birthday Tun . First step - education system based on merits and not on quota !

We were almost there in 2018 until you and your PH govt damaged it with flip flopped policies, cancellation of projects, damaged bilateral ties, internal political fight and corruption that brought down investment, stock market, jobs and earnings till date. chedetofficial

It was on the way to better times until you destroyed the hope.

U had 2 shots at it but, during ur turnure racism still exist, special privilege, playing race and religious card for everything needs to go 1st. Then u will see a developed nation till then no.

22 tahun wasted..

RIP.

Selamat Hari Jadi, Bro!

😂

Praying wont get u anywhere

Dari duluuuuuuu lagi
