Prime Minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad reiterated that Pakatan Harapan did not expect to win the last general election and therefore made promises in its manifesto which were difficult to deliver.<br /><br />“We thought we were going to lose. We put in tough things in the manifesto so that if we lose, the (BN) government would be in a quandary (after winning the polls).<br /><br />“But now, we are the government. We are victims of our own manifesto,” he said during his keynote address to the Lawasia conference in Petaling Jaya this morning.<br /><br />Mahathir pointed out that repealing laws which involved the Federal Constitution required the support of two-thirds of the members of the Dewan Rakyat.
