A commentator and an analyst have described as laughable the notion that choosing a nonagenarian former prime minister to head the opposition Pakatan Harapan pact represents change.
Sholto Byrnes, a senior fellow at the Institute of Strategic and International Studies Malaysia, said it was a regressive move and reflected poorly on the opposition to have Dr Mahathir Mohamad lead the pact and named as its candidate for prime minister.
In a commentary published on Jan 9 in The National, an English Language daily in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, Byrnes said the decision reflected poorly on the opposition’s confidence not only in its younger cadres but also in those who had always opposed the BN governing coalition which had never lost power since independence.
