COMMENT | The odd couple: Hadi and Dr Mahathir

COMMENT | Malays are no different from their Chinese, Indian, Orang Asli, Orang Asal, and Eurasian cousins. They want the same things in life; security for their families, employment, crime-free communities, education for children, accessible healthcare, affordable housing, and political stability.

Not all Malays have lost their values. Not all rural Malays are ignorant. The townie Malay with better wireless connection, newspapers, and publicity organisations at his disposal can be more clueless than his kampung cousin.

On Feb 28, PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang said that former prime minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad had invited him to his house after the 15th general election to share their concerns about the future direction of the country.

Their target? The Malays, or rather, the Malay mind. One works on the race angle, whilst the other controls religious sensitivities.

Don’t let these two men fool you!...
