Capturing Hope: The Struggle Continues for a New Malaysia

A book that will remain in history as a record of the real story behind the fsll of the Pakatan Harapan regime. Despite all the rumours and facts, this book tells a different version of the story.

Great piece from our beloved Tun Dr Mahathir. Explained well what couldn't be explained earlier.

You are perfect

To say that @chedetofficial is a divisive figure would be putting it mildly. The second memoirs of our previous PM was a more complete read than the first and brought some interesting reflections. The pages were easier to turn compared to turning over stones on the first edition.

He holds no punches in this publication and that applies to all races. Not merely the absurdity of using chopsticks that comes later. 13 chapters and a heartfelt poem

The constant snipping at @najib_razak does get tiresome. The irony about speaking on corruption and nepotism with a 'holier than thou' approach. The mistake of 'holding his successors to high standards' when in reality they not carrying out his agenda.

Though there is for most part quite fascinating takeaways. Getting into blogging back in 2008. The challenges of managing a PH cabinet and the interests of 5 parties. His interesting take on 'ulamas' and the role they play. Navigating the tough waters of ICERD and the Rome Statue. The campaign trail on the 14th GE. His passion for education and being an admirable orator.

It's quite clear that Dr.M is a student and champion of Japanese and Korean work ethics. He ends it by apologising for the unforgiven act in the eyes of many of resigning. In hope the fight goes on with young leaders. Most of us hope that is our next chapter and remains true.
