In a Bloomberg interview published today (Jun 25), Dr Mahathir said that the water deal with Singapore is "too costly" and added that his government needs to renegotiate the agreement with Singapore.
"We will sit down and talk with them (Singapore government), like civilized people," he said in the interview.
Bloomberg quoted Dr Mahathir as saying that he would be friendly with Singapore and other nations, while focusing on striking fair deals and ensuring balance.
"I think we can benefit from each other," he said. "We need the expertise of Singapore. Lots of Singapore people invest in Malaysia because it’s much cheaper here."
The water agreement between Singapore and Malaysia dates back to 1927. The present 1962 accord, which expires in 2061, gives Singapore 250 million gallons of raw water daily at 3 Malaysian sen per 1,000 gallons, and Malaysia buys back a portion of that at 50 Malaysian sen per 1,000 gallons.
The pacts have been a constant source of public political wrangling between both countries.
At one point former Singapore Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew said he was prepared to send troops to Malaysia if it tried to turn off the taps.
Bloomberg wanting a comment from Singapore side, said that calls to Singapore’s Ministry of Environment and Water Resources went unanswered.
Meanwhile, Singapore's former ambassador-at-large Bilahari Kausikan wrote on his Facebook page accusing Dr Mahathir of raising water issue as a diversionary tactic for seeking waiver or reduction of compensation due to the cancellation of the High-Speed Rail project.

Why didn't Mahathir increase tax to generate more income for the country instead of using Trump tactics. Be like PAP, tax and tax but give peanuts. Long live PAP

the problem is that mudland will get the peanuts skimmed and chukai'd by their korupt govt, and mudlanders will not be any wiser for that as they've been ingrained to this system for ages - same old, same old. on the other hand, sinkies are used to being butt-fucked and instead of peanuts, they give thanks for the chicken thigh whilst the whole chicken is rustled away under their very own noses and happy with that - 69% of the time.
merdeka and majullah - same, same but different!

I hope the good PM Lee sends in the SAF to secure our water supply. My son who is now doing NS, is more than willing to fight for Singapore.

PAP's argument - it is an international agreement, so cannot break. What is there to stop Mudland from breaking it? Nothing. Worse that can happen to Mudland ...be a pariah state to some countries.

PAP's argument - we can go to war if this agreement is broken. Says who?

PAP's argument - Mudland didn't revise the rate when it was given an opportunity. Nothing in the contract says that it has to be done at that point of time. It can be revised after x number of years. If both sides don't agree on the terms, then both walk away lah. PAP insists that is not the case.

This is a losing battle and PAP's argument is weak.
