Dr M di IJN untuk pemantauan

Former Malaysian Prime Minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad, now 101 years old, has been admitted to the National Heart Institute (IJN) for monitoring, according to his son Mokhzani. The institute announced the admission on Sunday, as reported by Bernama. A spokesperson for Mahathir's office, Sufi Yusoff, stated that the former premier is in good condition and resting at the IJN.

His wife, Dr Hasmah Ali, passed away at the IJN early Monday morning at the age of 100. She was granted a state funeral and buried at the State Guest House in Putrajaya. Her death was met with various expressions of respect, acknowledging her kindness and charm, in addition to her contributions to the nation. Mahathir said he did not believe Hasmah would pass away as she appeared healthy the day before.

Mahathir, who has a history of heart problems and underwent emergency heart surgery in 1989 and 2007, suffered a heart attack in January after falling at home. Due to his age, he is undergoing physiotherapy rather than surgery.
