COMMENT It is amusing to hear the latest fulminations of the country’s eminence grise on all things politic.

Of course Dr Mahathir Mohamad cannot allow such a juicy topic like the need for a debate between Prime Minister Najib Razak and Opposition Leader Anwar Ibrahim go unremarked.

He has to say something about it but whether he can bring it off without being self-contradictory is in doubt...
