LETTER | Hypocrites are aplenty in Pakatan Harapan and with Mahathir, it is a case of once bitten, twice shy.

Mahathir cries wolf

Mahathir seems fine with Proton continuing to incur losses, so long as it is 100 percent Malaysian.

The Mahathir legacy is suffocating

They say as you age you become wiser. However, when one is driven by hatred, he is out to destroy himself. World-renowned playwright George Bernard Shaw once said, “Hatred is the coward's revenge for being intimidated.”

Mr ISA slams Sosma

Mr ISA slams Sosma

Dr Mahathir Mohamad, together with some out-of-favour veteran Barisan Nasional leaders, have come together and voiced disgust against the arrest of former Batu Kawan Umno vice-chief Khairuddin Abu Hassan and his lawyer Matthias Chang. While Mahathir claims the arrest is due to them being vocal against 1MDB, in reality that is not the reason they were arrested.
What facts does Tajuddin Rahman have?

What facts does Tajuddin Rahman have?

Pasir Salak Member of Parliament Tajuddin Abdul Rahman, who is also the Deputy Agriculture and Agro-based Industries Minister, is the latest to jump on the bandwagon of condemning the Petaling Street visit by China’s Ambassador to Malaysia. He allegedly threatened to slap the Chinese if they continue to complain about the country overseas. What facts does this joker have to insinuate that Chinese traders complained to the Chinese government?
Mahathir showing signs of a desperado

Mahathir showing signs of a desperado

Push a man to the edge of a cliff and he would respond in a way you would never expect, merely for survival. This best describes Dr Mahathir Mohamad's reactions of late. Mahathir is at his end game. He has tried all his ace-cards but nothing seems to move Najib Abdul Razak. Even members of Umno have started to desert him.
Is this country a game of thrones to Mahathir?

Is this country a game of thrones to Mahathir?

Over the past few months, I have written numerous articles alleging that Dr Mahathir Mohamad’s main objective is not to remove NajibAbdul Razak as the prime minister but to place his own man at the helm. Comments pour in slamming my claims and questions are raised as to why I keep speaking about Mahathir.
Mahathir seems to be losing the plot

Mahathir seems to be losing the plot

When the 1MDB story unravelled, it was made to look like this scandal would be a nail in the coffin for Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak. Malaysians collectively took to social media and made various assumptions to the outcome of Najib’s premiership.
Racial division is the real threat to Malaysia

Racial division is the real threat to Malaysia

While the policymakers would like us to believe that terrorism, political ideologies and Isis are national threats, the real hazard is actually marginalising people with a race tag. The divide et impera (divide and rule) principle has been historically used to huge extents by great emperors in different continents across the globe. Malaysia’s fourth prime minister, Dr Mahathir Mohamad, ruled the country for 22 years by strongly adhering to this dictum as well.
Mahathir has a problem with everyone

Mahathir has a problem with everyone

From Tunku Abdul Rahman to Najib Abdul Razak, Dr Mahathir Mohamad has something negative to say about every prime minister who has graced this country. I wonder if Mahathir had been at the helm when our country got independence, would Malaya still be called Malaysia or Mahathirasia.
No, Mahathir, I’ve not forgotten

No, Mahathir, I’ve not forgotten

Dr Mahathir Mohamad is directing tirades of attack towards Najib Razak. While Mahathir cites concern over the welfare of the nation and Umno as his reason, deep down our guts, we all know how big a lie that is.
Should the gov’t bail out Proton, again?

Should the gov’t bail out Proton, again?

Perusahaan Otomobil Malaysia SdnBhd (Proton) was established in 1983 and its first car was launched a good 30 years ago, in 1985. Proton was the brainchild of none other than Dr Mahathir Mohamad. Proton was used as a platform for Mahathir’s dream to develop Malaysia into an industrial powerhouse. Despite a no-go from his personal advisers, critics and common sense, Mahathir went ahead to establish Proton.

Was Mahathir a leader or a boss?

Was Mahathir a leader or a boss?

I am sure most people who decide to read this article are doing so because the title of my article questions the popular belief. Some may already begin deploying their cavalry and loading their artillery even before reading past the first paragraph. I look back at Dr Mahathir Mohamad’s 22 years at the helm and wonder if he was a leader or a boss.
