The Tunisian people’s ousting of the hated Zine el-Abidine Ben Ali regime reminds all us opponents of criminal governments that it’s high time to rid Malaysia of Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad and his successors in the BN gang.

Seeing the Tun flying off to a well-deserved retirement in Saudi Arabia and his thieving, conniving successors, confederates and cronies out of office and on trial for their crimes against the nation would be a democrat’s dream come true.
