Hamzah: Dr M wanted options on how to exit Harapan

Bersatu secretary-general Hamzah Zainudin today claimed that former premier Dr Mahathir Mohamad had on several occasions informed party leaders to find ways for Bersatu to exit Harapan.

"I did not act to break apart the party but only based on what Tun (Mahathir) had asked."

He said this when asked for comments on claims that he had backed a plot to remove Mahathir and his supporters from Bersatu and break the party apart.
