Jointly authored by Chedet (the pen name of Mahathir) and Radzi Tajuddin, and first published in 2016, it is an assortment of messages, lessons and reminders on unity, democracy, education, culture, struggle and the value system in the Malaysian setting. 

It is jointly published by the Malaysian Institute of Translation and Book (ITBM), the Japan-Malaysia Association (JMA) and DuBook Press, and is expected to be marketed extensively in Kinokuniya Co Ltd’s chain of 70 bookshops throughout Japan by the end of this month.
