What Mahathir says...

Mahathir made some big statements at the Bersatu AGM. Here are three key issues he touched on:

Call me racist but Malays are in decline and it’s our fault - Dr M
Dr M once again talks about how Malays need to change their values and how they have to get rid of their crutches. This is nothing new. He's been saying this for years. The problem is that at the very same time he's calling for Malays to rely more on themselves, he insists that affirmative action based on race must go on. Why must it be based on race? If affirmative action is based on need, everybody who needs help get help. What's wrong with that?

Dr M: No Bersatu positions for Umno defectors until after GE15
I think most Pakatan Harapan supporters would prefer for Bersatu to not take in any UMNO MPs at all. But if Bersatu is intent on opening its doors to some UMNO frogs, at the very least there needs to be some safeguards like this in place. Hopefully, they don't change their minds and make exceptions to this rule. If they do, it's a real slippery slope.

PM: Umno leaders can only dream about forming unity gov't
I recall reading with incredulity some UMNO leaders suggesting the idea of a unity government with PH. Why in the world would PH want to have any sort of unity government with the party they vanquished? Its not like PH is short of MPs to form the government. They have already formed the government! Why would they even consider bringing UMNO (not UMNO frogs, mind you but UMNO itself) into a unity government? The answer is they won't because it's such a ludicrous idea. If UMNO members didn't realize that then, they should realize that now. As Dr M says: Only in their dreams can they hope for this to happen.
