THE INDISPENSIBLE TUN DR MAHATHIR

Ever wonder why Tun Dr Mahathir is so special? I do ....... lots of time . In the final analysis , I do earnestly believe that Tun is Allah's gift to us, Malaysians !

Tun's fearless expose' of events and collabarations , hitherto unknown to all and sundry , shakes us to the bone. I just marvel at the vast field of resources available at Tun's disposal. All this boils down to one important fact - Tun Mahathir commands a lot of influence, visible or not, that inspires him to continue giving his best to the country.

Examples abound as to Tun's wisdom and foresightedness; latest his posting about the sale of land to Singapore, which triggered our government's action towards the guilty party.

Tun's selflessness in devoting valuable time and energy during his retirement is manifested in his endless presentation of ideas and comments for the sole reason of trying to make this country a better place to live, even though he sometimes gets punches and brickbats in the process.

So in view of all this, I am of the opinion that Tun Dr Mahathir should be given a more significant role in our government. YAB Dato' Seri Najib is a very effective Prime Minister, much more superior than his immediate predecessor, and very dynamic in his leadership of the government. Thus I firmly believe that our former prime minister, Tun Mahathir , would be accorded a meaningful place in our administration. It is truly a waste if we do not give ourselves this chance.

Unfortunately , there are people who are obsessed with Mahathir bashing. They profess to speak 'for the people', condemning Tun Mahathir in the most cruel ways, when in actual fact these 'condemners' are themselves nothing compared to Tun Mahathir and do not even command any significant following. What is obvious is that they see Tun Mahathir as a statesman with a huge following in Malaysia and the world over; and thus Tun Mahathir's contribution in the form of ideas and suggestions to the ruling party will render the government more popular. These group of people are in fact blinded by their own arrogance, and motivated by their political agenda.

Fortunately, people in general are again warming up to Tun Dr Mahathir. Those frustrated individuals can hang their heads in shame and pray that they will be forgiven for all the nasty things they say about Tun Dr Mahathir, the slanders, the insults and what have you.

May Allah grant Tun Dr Mahathir a long and blessed life ahead..
