Ezam backs proposal for Dr Mahathir to serve full term as PM

Former senator Mohamad Ezam Mohd Nor has back Bersatu's proposal for Dr Mahathir Mohamad to stay on as prime minister for a full term – despite his insistence that he must keep his promise to hand over power to Anwar Ibrahim.

The statement comes amid a feud between the PKR president and his deputy Mohamed Azmin Ali.

Ezam was formerly an opponent of Azmin's, but the duo reconciled last year.
