PETALING JAYA: DAP veteran Lim Kit Siang says he is unaware of any DAP leader eager to return to power with Dr Mahathir Mohamad as the prime minister for the third time.
“I have become an octogenarian. Mahathir is older – he just celebrated his 96th birthday. I do not see him becoming prime minister a third time,” Lim said in a statement.
He was responding to a report that quoted Johor DAP leader Dr Boo Cheng Hau as saying there were voices in DAP calling for Anwar Ibrahim to step down as opposition leader as they were eager to return to power and were now cosying up to Mahathir, hoping to return to power one day.
“I don’t think Dr Boo is doing a service to DAP or to himself by concocting such baseless stories,” Lim said.
