MCA president Liow Tiong Lai today dismissed Dr Mahathir Mohamad's 22-year record as prime minister, describing him as a leader who had failed and is now leading the opposition coalition which he referred to as "Pakatan Jahat".

Liow, addressing delegates at the 64th MCA annual general assembly (AGM), also took aim at MCA's direct rival DAP, questioning why its parliamentary leader Lim Kit Siang had endorsed Mahathir.
