Kuli-Kit dialogue on Twitter
Twitter created a stir in the local community this afternoon when two veteran politicians from both sides of the divide took off on a spontaneous discussion covering a number of topics – oil, kalimah Allah, Tunku’s legacay and the state of the federation.

Those who were following the dialogue live were treated to a case-study of how constructive the political process can be if we were represented by people who mean well and have done sufficient homework.
Below is the transcript of the tweets and retweets between Tengku Razaleigh and Lim Kit Siang, which started at about 4pm.

limkitsiang: @razaleigh good idea but PDA makes no mention of “offshore”. Aren’t there some documents/records somewhere referring to it?
