Less than two weeks after telling Kyodo News that he would not be contesting in the 15th general election, former prime minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad has told Singapore's Straits Times that he is now likely to contest.

In an interview on Friday (Oct 2), the Langkawi MP said that his proposal not to stand "has caused a lot of unhappiness among my supporters".
