'I have lost count how many times Nazri kissed Mahathir's hand. To me, what Nazri did was nothing less than apple-polishing,' says a reader.

On Be a 'jantan' - leave Umno, Mahathir told

Syed Imran: Simply rude! Anyway, that is Nazri Aziz. But, I am wondering why on earth did he come out in such a way to defend Khairy Jamaluddin? Any vested interests? It's an open secret that each and everyone in Umno politics, whether they like it or not, wants to be seen or closely associated with Khairy for obvious reasons, just like when they kiss the hand of Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad when he was the prime minister.

I have lost count how many times Nazri kissed Mahathir's hand. To me, what Nazri did was nothing less than apple-polishing, which is very common among Umno politicians. So what's new, Nazri?
