Media should not play up Mahathir

By Joe Fernandez 
The way former Prime Mahathir Mohamad has been carrying on since retiring, keeping himself very much in the public eye, it appears that he wants his old job back and this time perhaps until he dies and that could be at 97+. That could be the real reason why the 13th General Election has been unduly delayed.

Mahathir is now 88 years old.

Mahathir's latest visit was to Sabah where he visited the troops in Lahad Datu besides delivering a lecture at UMS on the RCI.

Malaysia’s Mahathir: 9/11 not work of Muslims

By Inquirer.Net

KUALA LUMPUR – The long-serving former Malaysian premier Mahathir Mohamad says Arab Muslims are incapable of carrying out the 9/11 attacks on the United States that killed nearly 3,000 people.

The ageing firebrand, who was in power in Malaysia at the time of the attacks and stepped down in 2003 after 22 years in power, slammed former US president George W. Bush ahead of the 10-year anniversary Sunday of 9/11.

"Great Leader"'s son is Director in the San Miguel Corp, the largest beer brewery in the Philippines

Typical hypocrite. When poor helpless Muslims (like Kartika) are whipped for the act of consuming 3 glasses of beer, a well connected son of a scion, is now set to benefit in the millions by selling billions of mugs of beer. His father was the first one to have declared that " Malaysia is an Islamic state". His brother Mukhriz, who also happens to be super rich is one of the great stalwarts of Malay and Muslim rights. Malaysia has become another Animal Farm. As George Orwell said; " All men are born equal, but some are more equal than others."

Jokes for the day: Mahathir goes to Hell, again!

Mahathir, Queen Elizabeth, and Vladimir Putin all die and go to hell.

While there, they spy a red phone and ask what the phone is for. The devil tells them it is for calling back to Earth.

Putin asks to call Russia and talks for 5 minutes.  When he is
finished the devil informs him that the cost is
a million dollars, so Putin writes him a check.

Next Queen Elizabeth calls England and talks for 30 minutes.  
When she is finished the devil informs her that the cost is 6 million dollars, so she writes him a check.

By Wong Choon Mei, Malaysia Chronicle

Not only has Prime Minister Najib Razak made a complete U-turn from an earlier attempt to distance his Umno party from ultra-Malay rights group Perkasa, his trusted lieutenants now even say Najib’s prized 1Malaysia plan is not about racial equality.

The latest comments from Umno secretary-general Tengku Adnan were immediately denounced by Pakatan Rakyat leaders.

Finally, Mahathir concedes he screwed the merit system

He said: "If we use the merit system , half of the university students (Bumiputeras) don't qualify..."
