Mahathir Mohamad

Former Malaysian leader Mahathir Mohamad discusses China during a Lunch with the FT interview. He said “more ambitious” Chinese leaders were emerging “and maybe they like to flex their muscles a bit and that is very worrisome”. The 91 year-old described the Chinese government as “not really communist but they are not democratic; they are inclined towards totalitarianism”.
