Mahathir says he's ashamed...
Mahathir told the Associated Press in an interview today that he is ashamed to have hand-picked Abdullah as his successor. Quotes via Malaysiakini:
“My judgment of people is faulty,” he said.“I had this man whom I thought is quite harmless. I thought he would continue, maybe improve on what I have done,” said Mahathir.
“I fully expected him (Abdullah) to administer the country well, not (try) to prove that he is better than me by showing how bad I am,” said Mahathir. [...]
“If Khairy is out of the way and does not influence him, it is quite likely he will not make such (bad) decisions,” said Mahathir. “Not only Khairy but others — his son, his cronies.”
The ensuable shall ensue.

Folks
Pak Lah's Islamic credentials at stake, if Mahaathir's allegations are correct.
If you are devout Muslim and believe in Islamic ethics, and if you are now perceived as denigrating your mentor, your senior and someone who had given you authority and responsibility, ie political life after being put in the wilderness for a while, then you REALLY HAVE A PROBLEM.
Pak Lah must disengage himself from his SON IN LAW's greedy ambitions, both political and financial.
Pak Lah's moral make-up just won't allow him to do that.. and the cunning Son In Law knows that... he might have learnt it in Oxford or from Pak Lah's own daughter.
