Dr Mahathir Mohamad addresses the nation in a special speech broadcast by RTM.

KUALA LUMPUR: Dr Mahathir Mohamad today appeared on national television to offer a public apology over his decision to resign as prime minister early this week, and asked to be given the opportunity to find a solution to the ongoing crisis caused by the collapse of the Pakatan Harapan coalition this week.

He said he felt such a solution lies in the formation of a government that is free of partisan politics.

“As a normal human being, I also make mistakes. I apologise if my resignation was a mistake,” Mahathir, who has since been appointed as the interim prime minister following the collapse of the Pakatan Harapan government, said in a special broadcast on government channel RTM.

“Whether right or wrong, I feel that politics and partisan politics should be ignored for now. If allowed, I would try to form an admininstration that does not side with any party. Only national interests will be given priority,” he said.
