Calling Dr M’s bluff on Anwar’s leadership

From Amar Ramachandran

Dr Mahathir Mohamad says he has no confidence in Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim’s leadership, citing the latter’s approach to economic management at the time of the Asian Financial Crisis (AFC) in 1997/98.

Mahathir went on to state that we are in an “economic crisis” now and doubts the current leadership’s ability to come up with good strategies.

This is a doltish observation in the face of expected 2022 gross domestic product (GDP) growth of 8-9% (9.3% actual GDP growth, Q3 2022).
