FORMER prime minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad has announced the formation of a movement to unite the Malay community under a single umbrella.
This follows a meeting with several political leaders, including from Perikatan Nasional and PAS to discuss the 'big umbrella' secretariat.
Dr Mahathir said the movement is not politically motivated and will serve as a platform to resolve issues faced by Malays.
"It is a collective response to the growing challenges faced by Malays in the country.
"From our meeting with Bersatu and Pas, we believe the Malay community has problems," he said.
He said there are many problems faced by the Malays that can only be overcome if the government is controlled by Malays.
