Read Garnet R. Chaney's Exclusive News Story about some toys that are truly disturbing. Also, you may have heard a lot in the press about a recent speech of Malaysia's Prime Minister, Dr. Mahathir. Dr. Mahathir Muhammed, Malaysia's fourth Prime Minister, is a physician by training, and was chairman of the first Higher Education Council in Malaysia, and various Malaysian University councils. He held many different Cabinet posts in the Malaysian government before becomming Prime Minister on 16 July 1981. He was the first commoner to hold that office. He has won several landslide elections, and his long prime ministry has given Malaysia a political stability that is uncommon in that part of the world. Christopher John writes a guest editorial about how the media has, brace yourself, distorted reality again concerning Dr. Mahathir's recent speech: How The Media Has Blown The Comments Abouts "Jews" All Out of Proportion. Find out why the sound bites you've been hearing were not the truth, and also read what Dr. Mahathir really said, including his comments about Muslims and how "Angry people cannot think properly", and his repeated condemnation of the suicide attacks, things the big media here refuse to report as they condemn this distinguished inidividual at the end of his career: Text of Dr. Mahathir's October 2003 Speech. Today, in a change of power planned for over a year, Dr. Mahathir steps down from the Prime Minister position that he has held for over 20 years. Garnet R. Chaney also writes about a common health problem, snoring. Some notes about the history of Dr. Mahathir were taken from http://www.kiat.net/malaysia/past-PM.html |
