As for Lee I have never sourced any material from his memoirs. I have reead them but am not interested in his views of himself in the context of the world.

I would rather the well researched, peer reviewed documented (including from his own records) thesis on the man by the likes of independent minds like David Barr and Rev. James Minchin (No Man is an Island).

Lee would have sued thm if their accounts were in any way incorrect even in the slightest material particular. He has barred Minchin from visitng the island and nothing is yet known of his response to Bar’s book on him.

Your idea of “baseless” is a compliment. If I were to accept your values and your ideas of “fact” which you espouse with your cohorts on this blog, I would be in trouble.

The truth may not matter to you as you clearly have settled in your own dung like the proverbial “pig in its own… proverbials”. If it keeps you happy then good.

Lee was more than a mere translator. And if you are not offended by what he did in serving the Japanes who killed millions of your fellow Chinese during the war (Nanjing) because they did and still consider the Chinese to be a lower form of life then that too is fine by me.

It also serves the point made in the GRK article: that there are Chinese (you clearly are one of them) who would do anything for money including subjugating, humiliating, drugging, pimping on, murdering and selling their own.

Again if that suits you and your morality it does not the morality and the aspirations of a very large but not as vocal majority not only in Malaysia but around the world.

You may scream all you want. You are in a minority no one wants. Denigrading Mahathir in this sense is a blessing and a compliment to the man. Who after all in their right minds would want a compliment from someone who fits the category to which you belong? That would be an insult.

If you are really a Malaysian Indian, you are pariah Indian.

Comming from his base at Coward’s castle in Singapore, Wain a paid think tank operative pacifying a dying Lee Kuan Yew (now that his wife is a vegetable) sets fire to a reputation Lee could not in reality match.

Lee wanted the Malays to come crawling back to him when he quit the federation. His backers include SR Nathan who was a Spy for the Australian Security Intelligence Organzation (ASIO) outed by investigative journalist Brian Toohey, and his other guardians in people like Blades (of the British Special Branch) and Alex Josey of MI5.

The fact that as Chinese you still see someone of merit in Lee inspite of his betrayal of Chinese to the Japanese as a Japanese intelligence agent in world war 2, you deserve all the treatment you get in the hands of your enemies. You are a people without any dignity or self esteem when it comes to money.

Wain can write for you.

Remember this:

Denegrading Mahathir does not in any way serve to elevate the positions of Lim Kit Siang, Anwar or Badawi. They have been nothings and will always remain so into the timeless tunnels of history.

An all the swearing of the typical Chinese intellectual genius of those of you who choose invectives instead of substance to argue your point only serves to reinforce the stereotyping of your types.

Mahamamak wants now to be known as a racist, so that his blood lineage would not be challenged. Trouble is we saw racial communism since NEP, and mamak is communist head of government as he acted as such during his time. He can count on the buildings which any fool could have them built, with Petronas funds. He moulded the parasitice mindset of the people he pretended to lead. Since then, Malaysia is destined to be a failed state, because the majority believe in their unjust entitlements.

limkamput has pointed out the core value of basic covenant between two cunning politicians of the same common interest to share among themselves — you protect me and I will pay you back in equal protection as you need! If Najib is to allow the release of Barry Wain’s book on Mahathir’s biography, then that will most likely trigger an internal rifle within Umno between Najib and Mahathir for Mahathir will hate Najib for the breach of covenant.

Perhaps it is much more practical for us to get an internet version of the book than waiting for the release of the physical book from Custom’s warehouse!

It is pretty obvious that Tun D M already had some kind of “insurance policy” in place if he dared throw such an arrogant challenge at Kit.

BY the way, when is Barry Wain’s book going to be released? Why talk about RCI, suing and challenging the accuracy of the book when most of us have not read the book yet. May be the book is too benign. Someone may have to write a tougher and more accurate version after this.

Will PR openly declare that they will hold all past leaders accountable once they come into power? Do it now, otherwise I have this inkling that politicians will always try to protect their own kind. Yes, the present protects the past, and the future protects the present.

The most unforgivable thing about Mahathir is that he continues to destroy the fabrics of our societies, the natural good that should have been preserved rather than taken for granted, exploited and abuse too conveniently. Its the very thing that Tunku, the most magnaimous of all of us, could not forgive him for what he done to his beloved Malays even at his death bed.

One is the exchange rate with Sing dollars, as Dr M always wanted to compare with LKY.

When he took over in 1981, the exchange rate was roughly 1:1. When he left in 2003, the exchange rate is 1:2.5 What more to say, Dr M?

Only the Utusans and the Umnoputras will believe him.

Mumpuai lah

Otherwise, he will be regarded as a liar and a thief even after he has gone to meet his Maker. History has a long memory lasting thousands of years.

Orang-orang hebat minda tajam ..main politik lebih 22 tahun tak pernah tak menang pun..takkan kini boleh senang-senang dikalahkan..olehtu..begitu saje..!

Tunggu..dan lihatlah…negara tercintaku..!
Semoga doa-doakan yang terbaik bagi seluruh Rakyat Malaysia di atas 1Suara….1Malaysia negara tercintaku..!

…He questioned the spending of RM 270 billion (US$78.5 billion) of Petronas funds during Abdullah’s five-year term in office…. Mahathir did not include on his website a request to investigate the reign of Najib Tun Razak, the current prime minister, who as defense minister was involved in a series of massive cost overruns and questionable military purchases, including the US$1 billion purchase and/or lease of three French submarines, which earned his best friend, Abdul Razak Baginda, a €114 million “commission.”

Yes, of the “impeccable” people that come to the mind of Mahathir are his great pals, Robert Mugabee of Zimbabwe, General Khin Nyunt of Burma, Thaksin Shinawatra of Thailand, Mahmou Ahmadinejad of Iran, Muhammad Gaddafi of Libya and Sitiveni Rabuk of Fiji.

All these people are made of the same mould and character and they will agree that Mahathir has the stamp of impeccable quality (100% pure gold quality) in this privilege class.
