Dr Mahathir rubbished the rumours and said this was clearly a ploy by the opposition parties as they scramble to remain relevant and influential in the political arena. “As a weak party they have to change their approach which is why they are willing to support me,” he said during an interview with online portal The Malaya Post that was broadcasted on Youtube tonight.
He explained that as prime minister he is required to meet various groups representing different sections of society and have proper discourse with them so that he can obtain information to tackle the issues affecting all parts of society. “But, there are people who are interpreting my meeting with opposing party leaders as something that means I am working to make a new coalition; this is not true,” he said.
