Defending Dr M, the father of modern transportation

COMMENT | Since Najib Abdul Razak launched his very own “Kajang Move”, UMNO has been consistently attacking Mahathir’s legacy in revolutionising the Malaysia’s public transportation network.

I find it odd since the so-called “Mahathir’s Public Transportation Cronyism” took place under the Umno-led government.

If Mahathir was truly a liability to Malaysia, why did Umno use the LRT, ERL, KLIA, Monorail etc as political capital during past elections?

If Mahathir’s legacy was truly a failure, why didn’t the Umno-led government do anything at that point in time?...
