PM is going to retired. Sedey giler...for the past 21 years i have known no other Prime Minister except Dr. Mahathir. so there's major uncertainty in my mind.
IF THERE’S one achievement that Datuk Seri Dr Mahathir Mohamad can be proud of during the last two decades of leading this nation, it’s the pride he put in us of being Malaysians.
[the star 25 june] : It’s not the Twin Towers, Formula 1, Putrajaya, Multimedia Super Corridor that declare our nationalism – yes, all these make us proud too – but it’s the sense of belonging to this great country that he imparted into us Malaysians that should rightfully mark his tenure. And it’s not just the feeling of being able to walk tall and call oneself Malaysian unashamedly that he should be remembered for; more importantly it’s the interaction and feeling of kinfolk between us – Malays, Chinese, Indians, all the other races who make up this country – that he engendered that has become something we take as a matter of fact and made us the envy of numerous other nations. Racial harmony, national unity, multiculturalism, cultural diversity. Call it what you will. Malaysia has made it a way of life. And Dr Mahathir played no small part in it. For 21 years, he emphasised this and promoted it.
But change must inevitably take place. That it has to happen now or later leaves us no more ready or happy to face the event than at any other time.
thanx A.I, for the otak-otak! memang aku tgh lapo tahap naga that time...
