Old Fart was an egoistic individual who set his sight early in years to be somebody.
He saw an opportunity to lead a nation called Malaysia.
He is a great strategist with many faces ...he slept with the communists to get into power, toss them out after that. Then he stir up more shits to get sinkapore into Malaysia. He got it and then made an attempt to become PM of Malaysia. That was thwarted. He stir up shit to get sinkapore out of Malaysia. Got his wish and then settle to be the ruler of a peesai.
