Welcome to the blogging world Tun! Mahatir’s blog can be found at chedet.com where his first post regarding the appointment of judges and his second post a weak government is not good for multi racial Malaysia were able to capture lots of attention with comments counts from 800~1200 per post at this time of speaking.
It’s good when a veteran politician voice up, especially from a man who dares to question the western world in handling human rights and war. As can be seen from the blog, there were praises and there were hateful spams. It’s fair to say that people are still paying attention to what he says and what he does.
Good job in setting up a blog for cummincating your ideas, Tun. It seems that politicians are finally aware that there’s no other better then a blog/website to reach out.

Dr Mahatir still the No 1 leader in Malaysia. Go Tun …Go Tun … fight for our Malay right and Malaysia development.

We want a muslim world leader like Tun Dr Mahatir. Tun, please go and fight Israel with your strong words and wake up the muslim leaders throughout the world who are still worship USA, UK, etc. My proposal to you, muslim countries must be united and send soldiers, war planes etc to fight Israel. We have not much time to listen to USA and UK peace proposal. Muslims must fight now. Allah Huakabar.

From my knowledge, Tun Mahatir isn’t one of those Muslim leaders who prefers to use wars and weapons to win a fight. I sincerely hope not or else Malaysia won’t be as it’s today. Israel is really a sensitive topic, most of us know why and that’s also why Israel is the only country where a Malaysia passport prohibits its citizens from traveling to.

My be u re right because Malaysia is not a world power that why Tun Mahatir prefers not to use wars or weapons. However Tun Mahatir is an outspoken person when come to middle East issue such as the Israel and Palestinian war. And I am sure being a muslim Tun is able to influence other muslim leaders to look into the future of other muslims brothers and sisters in the middle East and to persuade what has to be taken to this biadap Israel. If you re muslim you know what I mean and how muslims feel the behaviour of this biadap Israel. I really admired Tun and his positive ideas in the past and todate.

It’s quite frustrating, isn’t it? Doesn’t sounds like there are a lot of fairness and justice when it comes to that topic. And I agree with you that Tun dares to speak up, unlike some of the Islamic countries leaders (except for Iran’s)
