During a Facebook Live interview with news portal The Malaysian Insight on Thursday, PKR President Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail said it was a painful decision to work together with former Premier Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad but one must place country above self. In September 1998, Mahathir sacked then Deputy Prime Minister and Wan Azizah's husband, Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, which sparked the “Reformasi” movement.
