INTERVIEW | As an opposition leader for five decades, Lim Kit Siang has witnessed Dr Mahathir Mohamad’s rise to power and scrutinised the latter’s 22 years as prime minister.
Lim's work as a government watchdog had resulted in him, in his own words, being once a “guests of His Majesty’s government” which is a reference to his incarceration without trial during Operasi Lalang.
