Former prime minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad said that Bersatu president Muhyiddin Yassin had asked for his support in his attempt to become prime minister again.

Speaking at a press conference this morning at his office in Al-Bukhary Foundation, Kuala Lumpur, Mahathir said he was also puzzled as to why Muhyiddin had done so.

The Langkawi MP said that Pejuang has not made any decision on the matter, but hinted that he was against it.
