I cannot resist answering that question by suggesting, “Why is a Chinaman replacing me as Mahathir’s confidant?”
But seriously, to know more about Matthias’s take, go to his site:

Excerpt:
“But Tan Sri repeated the question and with tears welling in his eyes, said, “My greatest mistake in my political career is to recommend Badawi as successor to Mahathir. Pak Lah was not his first choice. I was told by those who wanted Badawi as successor that if anyone could convince Mahathir, it would be me. At that time, I believe Pak Lah was the correct choice. So I recommended Pak Lah to Mahathir.”
It's no use crying over spilt milk. Pak Lah or not, move on positively.
ReplyDeleteActually, I am not really that bothered except for a few things like nepotism in the way of fighting corruption, and more rhetorics than actions to bide time which can be frustrating. For each concern, the question: Is it on or not? comes to mind. If not, please let us know asap.
