PETALING JAYA: DAP supremo Lim Kit Siang has hit out at Dr Mahathir Mohamad, calling his decision to resign as prime minister an “egregious blunder” because he still had the majority at that time.

Lim was responding to Mahathir’s remarks yesterday in which the elder statesman appeared to blame Lim for his failure to form a unity government.

“I failed because Kit Siang said I was trying to become a dictator. He supported Anwar (Ibrahim) as the PH (Pakatan Harapan) candidate. Had the 92 votes gone to me, I would have had 154 votes.

“You can imagine what direction the nation would take when all parties put the nation first,” Mahathir said yesterday.
