PETALING JAYA: In a shocking “revelation”, Dr Mahathir Mohamad said he wanted to give the premiership to Anwar Ibrahim but the current prime minister stepped in to deny Anwar the seat.

The former prime minister claimed Muhyiddin Yassin brought down the Pakatan Harapan government so he could become prime minister.

Dr Mahathir said Muhyiddin knew he would have no chance of becoming the prime minister if Anwar took on the top job.

“Muhyiddin knew he would never be prime minister because I had already promised that Anwar would take over when I stepped down.

“If Anwar had become prime minister, I don’t think he would appoint Muhyiddin as his deputy and Muhyiddin would not have a chance to lead the country,” Dr Mahathir told reporters during an online press conference.

Dr M – teller of tall tales and his waning audience

From Clement Stanley

Malaysia was known at one time for putting up the tallest building. The country has also probably produced the world’s best squash player of all time.

It is known for many other achievements, although some of these will probably be overtaken or have already been overtaken.

But I believe Malaysia will never be overtaken when it comes to producing the world’s biggest storyteller in the form of Dr Mahathir Mohamad.

Mahathir recently said he wanted Anwar Ibrahim as prime minister but claims it was undone by Muhyiddin Yassin, our present prime minister. Really?

The Brothers Grimm were magnificent storytellers, but the yarn Mahathir is now spinning far outweighs any stories they have come up with.

While I am no admirer of Anwar, I do sympathise with him.

Anwar has been duped by Mahathir so many times you almost need a calculator to work it out.

And while great storytellers can pull you into their universe and make you believe in the fantastic, Mahathir’s latest would beat it all if it was said a long, long time ago, in a galaxy far away.
