This year has seen a changed Mahathir Mohammad as he goes about to set the business of putting Malaysia in order by highlighting and addressing Najib’s shortcomings but the final blow would be when he arranges to discover the truth of the murder of Mongolian translator Altantuya Shariibu in which the prime minister is implicated.
Mahathir has been busy on his road show questioning and interrogating as he goes about trying to discover all that Najib and his wife Rosmah and their children have been up to ever since he took the chair of prime minister from Abdullah Ahmad Badawi.
Mahathir’s biggest expose so far is the wrongdoings in 1 Malaysia Development Board. But he has not stopped there. He has many intriguing questions to pose and ask Najib such as the lavish spending of Rosmah and his children having staggering amounts of money at a time when 1MDB is reportedly in debt to the tune of RM 42 billion.
The buck doesn’t stop here. Najib’s mismanagement of the finances of the country has Mahathir going to the ground to question why as finance minister and prime minister, Najib has wasted so much of the taxpayer’s money frivolously while imposing heavy burdens such as the Goods & Services Tax 2015 while not being able to keep a check on the price spiral of goods and services.
Altantuya’s murder

With the alleged killers of Altantuya incarcerated, one in a prison in Malaysia and the other at a detention center in Australia, moves are afoot by Mahathir to get them to be questioned to spill the beans on who killed the Mongolian translator who is supposedly known to Najib and was blown up by the use of government explosives.
While the two alleged killers of Altantuya are policemen who have no motive to kill her as they did not know her from Adams to apples, Mahathir is of the opinion that there is something very fishy and sinister about the whole episode and he harbors strong suspicions that Najib and Rosmah know more than they are letting on.
This is why he is going on his road show to expose Najib as a fraudulent leader and who is no longer fit and competent to lead this country as there are growing complains and dislike for the way and manner Najib is governing this country. Worse is yet to come as more and more people quietly and secretly come forward to supply Mahathir with ample evidence of wrongdoings by Najib.
Snowballing evidence
Dr M
There is mounting evidence now being collated by Mahathir as Najib stands firm and refuses to budge. Najib has so far resisted all calls by Mahathir to get him to resign as prime minister but the aging Mahathir in probably what is to be his swansong in politics is all the more determined to get rid of Najib whom he considers to be a grave liability to the people and country.
Mahathir has covertly got around to UMNO members and parliamentary members and is now in the midst of compiling the number of votes he needs to call for a “No Confidence” motion against Najib to be tabled in Parliament. He has a steady and increasing stream of support and it won’t be long before he makes his move to oust Najib.
UMNO insiders say there is growing support for Mahathir in his campaign to oust Najib day by day and there is no way Najib can muster the support to defend himself. While on the surface it looks as if UMNO is backing and giving support to Najib, in reality the opposite is true as it is Mahathir who is sweeping the support of UMNO, BN, the opposition and the rakyat.
Replacing Najib - doing it not the problem, finding the right candidate is
Mahathir’s real problem or dilemma which is a quandary to him is not ousting Najib. This is something Mahathir is very easily capable of doing but is biding his time for the right moment to deal the killer blow to Najib. Mahathir’s real headache is on finding a suitable replacement for Najib as he has already reached the stage of getting rid of Najib.
From the ranks of UMNO, Mahathir is hard pressed to choose a replacement prime minister. Muhyiddin might be an acting PM upon the exit of Najib as this is a logical solution. But a permanent replacement might be Ahmad Zahid Hamidi who is in great favor with Mahathir and whom Mahathir sees as the best of the lot among UMNO top guns.
Whatever the way or option Mahathir aims to go about ousting and replacing Najib, he is on a daily basis receiving hordes of growing support everywhere as Malaysians are sick and tired and fed up with Najib and Rosmah and are disgusted with the way they go about their lavish and opulent lives at a time when the average, ordinary Malaysian is so hard pressed trying to butter his bread.
With a more responsible, prudent and wise prime minister who has his head on his shoulders, Mahathir believes Malaysia will be able to be revived and get to become a more healthy and better nation where governance will take into consideration the peoples wants and needs and accordingly bring about changes to move this nation forward. - MAILBAG
