SHAH ALAM - Former Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad HAS described the conferment of the title "Tan Sri" to former DAP chairman, Lim Kit Siang as being on the same level as the late Kelantan Menteri Besar Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat.

The former Langkawi MP said that Lim's contributions cannot be matched by any other party.

"It's good that he (Kit Siang) received the title 'Tan Sri' because it is on the same level as Nik Aziz," he told Sinar after a closed-door meeting on Malay Proclamation, today.

The proclamation initiated by Dr Mahathir aims to protect the interests of and unite the Malay community to “restore the political power of Malays”.

On June 5th, local media reported that Lim and Nik Aziz were among the recipients of the Panglima Setia Mahkota (PSM) honorary title in conjunction with the King's birthday.
