  "account": "Former Prime Minister and founding figure of the Pakatan Harapan coalition, Dr Mahathir Mohamad, stated that those who previously lacked patience in leaving the government due to unbearable hardships are now seen transitioning back to their respective parties. Speaking at the Pakatan Harapan National Assembly, Mahathir noted that the cycle of events appears almost complete, citing a text recited by Rafique Rashid Ali, the head of the event. Additionally, individuals who previously rushed to leave the government or sacked the previous leadership of Pakatan Harapan are now facing similar consequences and are forced to establish a new party. Mahathir emphasized that there are no permanent friends in politics, only the pursuit of objectives in the political arena. He stressed that a shift in political factions is nothing out of the ordinary, provided that the principles of the struggle and the party's foundation remain intact for the benefit of the people. Mahathir expressed hope that Pakatan Harapan continues to thrive and consistently moves forward as the voice of the people's conscience, even if it entails navigating a challenging and complex political journey. Earlier, Mahathir was reported to have arrived at the Pakatan Harapan National Assembly for the fourth time in IDCC Shah Alam at 11:37 AM, marking his first appearance in a formal party event since almost seven weeks since losing his wife, Dr Hasmah Ali.",
