Prime Minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad said the government intends to develop the nation by focusing on the agenda of ‘enriching the people’ through the creation of more job and business opportunities.

Mahathir, who also chairs Pakatan Harapan, said this was to educate the people to be more independent and efficient in generating their own income through businesses, as well as to help improve the country’s economy.

He said this when speaking at the Jelajah Malaysia Baharu programme at Dataran Stargate in Alor Setar yesterday night.
