KUALA LUMPUR — Former Malaysian prime minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad has admitted there were times during his recent hospitalisation at the National Heart Institute (IJN) when he felt his prognosis was bleak.

In a short video shared on his official Twitter account on Wednesday , the 96-year-old expressed his gratitude to the medical staff at IJN for helping him to overcome the “terrible” illness that had afflicted him, and thanked those who prayed for his recovery.

“I can eat, walk and sleep. I am almost well but cannot do any work at the moment. But I will recover,” he said, albeit in a frail voice.
