Malaysia's opposition coalition has pledged to axe an unpopular good and services tax and reopen investigations into a multibillion-dollar financial scandal linked to Prime Minister Najib Razak if it wins the next elections.
The Hope Alliance, led by former Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad, also promised to clip the powers of the prime minister, revive fuel subsidies and a slew of economic reforms as part of its manifesto for polls due by August but widely expected in the second quarter.
In announcing the coalition's manifesto late Thursday, Mahathir said the opposition has been labelled "government-in-waiting" as he rallied supporters to unite to oust the coalition that has ruled since independence.
