Tun Dr Mahathir along with Umno rebels, opposition leaders and civil society activists have been collecting the signatures as a way to pressure Datuk Seri Najib to step down due to financial scandals tied to state fund 1Malaysia Development Berhad.

Should it be has instead? Thanks.

To make has work, I think there should be commas after Mahatir and activists.

I think our reporters are careless in punctuation. I think, without or without the commas, "has" should be used.
