Malaysiakini's description of Lee Lam Thye as a social activist is very curious to say the least. Since he left politics Lee has been more a businessman and an establishment figure than someone who will agitate for social change to benefit the masses.
Except for the short time when he was in opposition politics; when has Lee made any statement contrary to or critical of government policies without first taking the wind directions?
I am not so much criticising Lee - after all we are what we are - than pointing out how misleading your description is.
