槟城开讲吸引逾千五人聆听
马哈迪拒推荐纳吉替代人选 槟州希盟政府破天荒邀请前首相马哈迪开讲，吸引超过1500位民众涌入海峡港口会展中心，聆听该名前国家领袖为国家未来前景把脉。 马哈迪在演讲上数度呼吁，民众签署要求撤换首相纳吉的《公民宣言》，但在发问环节询及时，依然拒绝为安华或东姑拉沙里等潜能接班人背书，同时也不肯表态是否支持巫统继续执政。 对他而言，即使是好领袖，上台后也难免会变质。至于巫统是否应再掌权，他未正面回应说，一

砂州選州政府是贏家 馬哈迪：中央政府 納吉輸家
（檳城8日訊）前首相敦馬哈迪認為，國陣在砂拉越州選舉大勝，勝者其實只是砂州政府，中央政府和首相納吉都是輸家。 他說，砂州政府在首長阿德南率軍下大勝，意味著納吉必須迎合更多阿德南往后的任何要求。 他今日主講由檳城研究院，主辦的“馬來西亞何去何從？”講座會后，在記者會上回答提問。 “砂州選舉的結果，只有砂州政府和阿德南是贏家，如今征收過路費是失民心之舉，東馬要廢除過路費，納吉也須答應，這將給納吉帶來更
