LANGKAWI: Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad has again urged Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak to contest for the Umno president’s post in December before it is too late.

What is he waiting for? He will end up with nothing if he continues to wait,” he said after attending a private dinner at his restaurant The Loaf at Telaga Harbour Park here last night.

Dr Mahathir was responding to the statement by Najib that he would not do anything that would destroy the party.

On the allegation by High Court judge Datuk Ian Chin that he threatened judges, Dr Mahathir said it was part of an ongoing agenda to shut him up.

But I am not going to stop. I will continue writing in my blog,” he said.

Asked if he would take legal action against allegations hurled against him, Dr Mahathir said he did not have the money to waste on cases that he was not sure of winning.

He also noted that Justice Chin had claimed that they (judges) could not make judgments against the ruling government. - The Star
