KUALA LUMPUR: Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia (PPBM) members have been advised to not get “too excited” over the naming of Tun Dr Mahathir’s as Pakatan Harapan’s prime minister candidate.
Domestic Trade, Co-operatives and Consumerism (KPDNKK) Minister Datuk Seri Hamzah Zainudin, in a statement today, claimed that if PH do win the 14th General Election, the pact’s main choice for the prime minister position would be DAP leader Lim Kit Siang and not Dr Mahathir.
“They just want Dr Mahathir to be the prime minister candidate so that Dr Mahathir will attack Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak.
“Lim and PKR president Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail do not believe in Dr Mahathir because they know if Dr Mahathir becomes the prime minister, he will make a U-Turn and put them all in jail again.
“They also know that Dr Mahathir’s mission is to see his son, Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia (PPBM) president Datuk Seri Mukhriz become the prime minister,” he claimed.
