Dr Mahathir: What’s next, a white PM?
This was the title of a report in the Today paper. Mahathir was angry with the stupid UMNO leaders for hiring an angmo to save the ailing MAS. He questioned whether there is any more intelligent Malaysians or Malays left to turn the airline around. If everything has to be solved by foreigners, what about a white PM? Are the whites really smarter or because the silly Asians gave them all the opportunities to be trained on the jobs and depriving their own kind to be trained and to gain experience in top jobs?
“I am worried, if we do not believe in ourselves, one day when we need a Prime Minister, we can get a white man because he is ‘smarter’ than us….If people want to get angry(with my comments), so be it. That’s my opinion.”
In the same article ‘Mahathir also expressed worry about an increasing distrust of local expertise in important positions…We have many talents in this country. But if they want consultants, they call in foreigners. Even directors are foreigners.’ He also said, ‘the country became prosperous after gaining independence because of the efforts of local leaders. “I don’t think Malaysians are stupid. During the British occupation, we were a poor and backward country. We became rich and developed after independence, led by Malaysians,” he said.
I am wondering if Mahathir was taking a dig at Malaysia’s stupidity or sneering at Singapore. What he said is everything about the developments in Singapore. We have confused national responsibility with commercial responsibility and allowed foreigners to take charge in strategic areas like IT, university education, finance and soon it will be the legal system. A white PM will happen faster here than in Malaysia. The UMNO may be stupid, but they have the ultra nationalists to prevent them from selling out their country. In Singapore, once a govt becomes stupid, there will be no ultra nationalist to stop them from hiring a foreigner as PM and selling this country to foreigners. Any ultra nationalist or patriot would likely to be behind bars when the time comes.
Thank you Mahathir, for the subtle warning and for saying the right thing. We are stupid and that is absolutely true. You can see it everywhere. The cab drivers will confirm this if you have any doubts. The unemployed PMEs would have many testimonies to vouch for it.

Yes, yes. We must develop our internal talents or else our faith is nothing but doomed. I had worked with Ang Mohs and I am convinced they are not superior tahn us. As RB said, many times, we are the one who trained them and give them senior posts.
when mahathir had to go for his heart bypass against the advice of many he chose a malaysian medical team to do it instead of going overseas like the sultans and other ministers. he is doing better physically and mentally now than lky, who did rely on foreign doctors. trust your local talent. and i'm no fan of mahathir. not a fan of lky too.
even his prime ministerial official limo was a proton even though it was a fucked up car. at least he got some pride, even though it was stupid stubborn pride. better than our miw's.
This guy may talk craps now and then, but he is proud to be who he is, a Malaysian. Not a fake angmo or foreigner idol fan.
This senile hypocrite got the gall to say this. He single-handedly caused all non-Malay local talents to leave Malaysia because of his Bumi policy.
He is sore because MAS employed Christoph Mueller as the new CEO for MAS. Of course there are plenty of qualified Malaysians for this job - except that they lack kulit-fication - wrong skin colour.
Two of the most suitable candidates were/are JYM Pillay and Dr Cheong Choon Kong - both from Malaysia. They went South and went on to create one of the greatest airline in the world - A Great Way to Fly.
This old man just does not want to admit that he is the cause of all the ills in Malaysia today.

Is Singapore doing the same, driving away talented Sinkies and replaced with rubbish?
So many angmohs running SIA and many GLCs. What is the dif?
Dr M has a big stick up his crinkly old ass about race.
For starters, he has consistently played down-- to the point of denial-- his own part-Indian ancestry. If you'd dare to call him "mama" to his face, he will definitely exact revenge on you.
Dr M is EX-SPURT at playing the RACE CARD. He excels in this particular skill because he's had plenty of practice -- notably with Australia, a cuntry he clearly detests.
I have a fondeness for Dr M, and what would the man be without his bellicose outbursts? Dr M is a superb statesman and entertainer, and as a result has amassed a huge personal fortune, as is to be expected from a wily CAREER politician. No one is safe from his ascerbic tongue. He has scolded: UMNO, The Chinese, The USA, Australia (his #2 favourite), Singapore (his #1 favourite), The United Nations, the ultra-religious Muslims, The Jews...the fucker is like a stand-up comedian riffing on racial stereotypes lah...
Dr M, please, more comedy!
Your Dr M means Dr Matilah?
Who is the real comedian? He will eat you for breakfast.
Ang mohs just like the Ah Neys are talented in their gift of the gabs.
They hide their weaknesses of non knowledge by spewing high and mighty of their talents.
Only stupid Asians and coloued people believe in them.
See how they can even convinced the birds in the branches to fly to them and boiled them in hot soup.
Have they revived NOL and many other companies when they are the CEOs???
Now even SIA screwed up in minor details of even fares quotes by employing other foreign talents.
They just convinced the interviewers with their charms and wits. After unable to fulfil their duties, just simply patted their backsides and resigned.
After all got enough renumerations and benefits for the period of time that we had fooled you. The shits are now in your courts.
Off now to another country or place to con the rest.
See how they enjoyed themselves the fullest most of the time during working hours in sports and other gears whereas you suckers served them on golden platters.
The One George Street is one fine example of how they conned sinkies of millions of dollars.
I had related another example in my earlier post in one of RB posts. This is about a scuba diving lesson in one of the swimming pool.
One ang moh took a suba diving course one lesson earlier than the rest of the class of sinkies in a SAFRA pool.
The next lesson was joined by a batch of fresh novices. The instructor was away for while and he started preaching the fresh face novices of what to be done by demonstrating liks a pro.
They believed him totally from the looks of their faces.
I couldn't stop laughing at their beliefs in him.
I always admired his speeches.
Dr M never minced his wordsreCAPTCHA
It is better for malaysia to sell MAS to a european airline. Will be a win-win to all and very entertaining on air.

without using taxpayers monies to "subsidise" that airline, that airline long would have been underwater leow. Never really impress by that airline.
The definition of a consultant is someone who borrows your watch to tell you what time it is; not very different from what an Ang Moh has learnt to do in Asian countries. It is part of the `white coat` syndrome. Same with university professors. Whilst I may be overgeneralising, most of the foreign academics in the faculties of business, social sciences and humanities in Singapore are at best second-raters as judged by international yardsticks such as publications and citations (whether you like this measure or not). Many would not even get `tenured` positions back in their home countries, let alone full professorships. You have to be in the `game` to know this.
