    Proud to be Malaysian. Now we have a world class leader.
  • I admire Malaysia's stances here. ASEAN countries should have independent foreign policies and make wise strategic choices.
  • @zeissiez
    As a Malaysian, I hope our leader chooses the path for prosperity for our country. As Henry Kissinger said: to be a a friend of America is fatal. We best stay neutral, but if we have to choose, then it’s not America.

    Yonden Lhatoo and Anwar Ibrahim are 2 great Asians! Tell the imperialists to go home, and to stop meddling in the affairs of other countries. Whether in East Asia or West Asia.
