Malaysia's Dr Mahathir Mohammad is bankrupt.
Before anyone sues me for lies and defamation, let me clarify. He is bankrupt of ideas, of constructive suggestions that will solve problems and not exercerbate them. In response to the conflict between Israel and the Hamas in the Gaza strip just this past week, Dr M suggests that the world boycott all American made products, including Coca-cola, as well as the US currency. Didn't we last hear him suggest to the world to boycott Netherlands products for screening a film that criticized the Holy Quraan, the holy book of Islam? It would appear that boycotting is the Mahathir way.
In the war between Israel and the Lebanese back in 2006, Dr M also called for the boycott of the US currency.
Back in 1997, Dr M suggested that ASEAN should boycott ASEM because ASEM insisted on banning Myanmar from its dialogue. In 1998, Dr M boycotted the APEC. His alternative to the APEC, the East Asia Economic Caucus, had received lukewarm response.
Here is the boycott man spieling his brand of geopolitical strategy:

What ever lah..
Wow,this has turned into a hate post.
I think it is better to remove these comments.
Racism is against unhealthy and against the law.
I would disagree with many of the 'pig' remarks made about Malays in the foregoing comments. I have not a few Malay friends who are decent, honest and hardworking people, some of whom are intent on erasing this misconception that they are a lazy and stupid race.
However, the shenanigans that seem to be part of Malaysian politics today (and I daresay for some time already) does lend some credence to the outbursts - its the law of motion. You will have an equal and opposite reaction.
So I am not going to remove those comments. I think they are fair comments, though I disagree with the way those comments were phrased.
