Stitch,

<<Mahatir's time has passed. He should go.>>

It seems that he's running out of choices. He's backed himself into a corner we've seen before - if he cracks down hard, he inspires an even harsher reaction. People certainly saw what happened in Jakarta, and they know there is strength in numbers.

The question now is not whether he will go, but whether he will go clean or go dirty. Hope it's the former, for everyone's sake.

If he has to choose someone from UMNO as a successor, who do you think he'd choose? Are they all sycophants, or is there someone of quality in the pack?

Steve
