Almost there: The rivalry between the three leaders, (from left) Dr Mahathir, Hadi and Najib, is most evident in Kedah where their respective coalitions have strong presence.

TUN Dr Mahathir Mohamad went into the lion’s den on Wednesday, stopping right in front of the Umno building in Pekan town.

He posed for selfies with some passers-by as Barisan Nasional flags fluttered in the background.
