Mahathir’s dramatic antics continue …
(Malaysia Outlook) – Dr Mahathir Mohamad’s antics over the last couple of years have been a case study in what not to do at the termination of a political career.
Every move he has made had all the earmarks of a bitter man who has not gotten his way so his only resort was to try and destroy what he perceived was the cause of his dissatisfaction.
He blames Prime Minister Najib Razak for not straightening out matters concerning the crooked bridge and for not doing more to assist his son to become the Umno Youth chief or get one of the Umno vice president post.
Apparently Mahathir was not satisfied with his son Mukhriz being handed the Kedah menteri besar post.
In Mahathir’s mind, being Menteri Besar was not good enough as it was not fast track to the post of prime minister.
So what Mahathir had to do was step up his effort to get rid of the person who he believed was blocking his son’s future in politics; Prime Minister Najib Razak!
Mahathir knew that harping on the crooked bridge would not gain him listeners as the crooked bridge seemed to be his personal project.
