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.”
Dr Mahathir Mohamad’s loathing towards Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak has forced him into something that he himself despises. Desperation to overthrow Najib is growing at an alarming rate. Mahathir knows time is not on his side. He does not have many years left. If anything, the Mahathir legacy is suffocating. The Mahathir dream is mummifying.
I have been writing for some time now expressing my disgust with Mahathir. He has been exposed once again in a video that has been going viral on social media where Mahathir labels the Indians as ‘keling’.
I applaud DAP’s Prof P Ramasamy on his opinion against the insecure Mahathir. Ramasamy wonders how a man like Mahathir can be seriously taken in Malaysian politics if he has nothing but contempt for the non-Malays in the country. Instead of sitting in an air-conditioned room and running his fingers on the keyboard, Ramasamy need not wonder but instead forward his grievances to his DAP bosses.
Ramasamy should perhaps change his optical lenses to get a clearer view on who are the ones that are heavily relying on Mahathir to remain politically relevant. The only ones who worship Mahathir today are his own DAP and PKR allies. How can civil society take the opposition seriously when they are working with the demon that single-handedly destroyed this country? Has Ramasamy insinuated that the opposition are merely a bunch of hypocrites?
Mukhriz Mahathir has publicly admitted that Mahathir and company are not there to be the opposition. They only exist to overthrow Najib. They are there to only revive Mahathirism. If Najib toed Mahathir’s line, do you think we would be seeing the Mahathir we see today?
Dr Siti Hasmah Mohd Ali recently poured out her sorrows in the media with regard to the hairdryer treatment her husband is getting. Dear Dr Siti Hasmah, how do you think Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail and Gurmit Kaur (late Karpal Singh’s wife) would have felt when your husband did things multiple-folds worse to their respective husbands? Do you expect us to sympathise with you because your husband is being treated like trash?
With Mahathir’s latest ‘keling’ parody, I wonder if it is acceptable to label every Indian who supports Mahathir as a ‘keling’.
Mahathir is a poison that would slowly seep into your bloodstream and then destroy you. Just as how he destroyed my wonderful Malaysia and spoilt the Malays, the self-destruction of the opposition would ensue. The colour of your skin can never be used as evidence of your heredity. If so, then the late Michael Jackson would have to be considered as of white descent.
