The prime minister says there have been many instances where much destruction has been done by 'very smart individuals'.

Prime Minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad at the Asia School of Business convocation in Kuala Lumpur today. He is flanked by ASB co-chairs Zeti Akhtar Aziz and Athanasios Orphaninedes.
