“Admittedly, some had misunderstood our intentions, intentionally or otherwise, some had felt slighted while a few were suspicious,” Dr Mahathir said in his closing remark.“We are not here to replace any other Muslim platforms, neither are we intending to create different categories or classes of Muslim nations nor to undermine others,” he added.
“To establish collaborations that will first benefit the nations involved and then taken onto a bigger platform and collaboration to benefit the Muslim world as a whole,” he said. “We share the sentiments that for these efforts to work we need to keep the initial group small,” the prime minister said in his closing remark.
