Dr M forgives Kok Wing, says some only support those in power

Dr Mahathir Mohamad said today that he forgives public relations guru Lim Kok Wing.

The prime minister also noted that some only support those in power.

"We know some people look for the easy way. When someone is in power, they support them.

"When I had no power they did not support me. When I am back in power, they support me," he said in relation to the lashing his daughter Marina gave Lim on social media earlier today.

When asked whether he forgave Lim, Mahathir said: "I am a very forgiving person."
