Dr Mahathir Mohamad has reiterated his promise to relinquish the prime minister's post before the end of his term.

On Economic Affairs Minister Azmin Ali supporting the proposal for him to continue serving as prime minister, Mahathir replied: “That is his opinion.”

“But I have given my undertaking, I will step down when I find that the situation in the country has been put on an even keel... maybe two years, three years.

“I don't know, we are working on that,” he added.
