I got my copy of Mahathir's memoirs "Doctor In The House" today.Rest assured it will be consumed in no time.
No leader in this country, not even the blue bloods, has such stockaded belief in the Malay cause as much as Mahathir.Critical of Malaysia's first Prime Minister Tunku Abdul Rahman's leadership and of the weaknesses of the Malay race, he had been admonished, reviled and sacked from UMNO and resuscitated by the political fortunes of succeeding leaders.
As they say the road to hell is paved with good intentions, Mahathir is the most misunderstood politician in the country but still a prepondrence among the Malay masses. Loved by many but hated by politicians, in and outside his party, casting aspersions on his leadership.
A non conformist he is still dishing out controversial political views making him the approbrium of his poltical nemeses.
At age 86, Mahathir is still the maverick politician and very popular still.His blog and exoteric writing has attracted over 33 million visitors.People like Anwar Ibrahim and Lim Kit Siang did not even dare put up traffic meter on their blogs.Anwar called him a blatant liar and suffering from selective amnesia here.
Who do I think the liar?
My bets!
It is Anwar. Suffering from 'pseudologia fanstatica' and is such a clever and consistent pathological liar he managed to fool majority of people in and outside the country of his innocent.
To prove his innocent he should now volunteer to provide his semen for DNA testing or put his money where his mouth is.
What about Musa Hitam and Ku Li, are they not going to write their memoirs ?
