When Pakatan has to eat back its own words
Salleh Said Keruak
The opposition has always maintained that if it ever forms the new government the first thing they would do is to make Tun Dr Mahathir pay for his crimes. Since 1998 the opposition has always claimed it has enough evidence to force Mahathir to face trial for the alleged wrongdoings he committed in his 22 years as Prime Minister.
The battle-cry of the opposition since 20 years ago is that Malaysia needs to be saved and this can only happen if Mahathir is ousted from power. Mahathir was identified as the cause of the rot and unless the cause can be eliminated then the rot can never be removed. People were united against Mahathir and not united under Mahathir, as the impression that is currently being created.
