SINGAPORE: Emeritus Senior Minister Goh Chok Tong congratulated Malaysia's Prime Minister-elect Mahathir Mohamad and his coalition partners on their stunning victory on Thursday (May 10).

"One must salute Mahathir for his indomitable will and energy to right what he thinks is wrong with his country," wrote Mr Goh on Facebook.

"Watching Mahathir fight Malaysian GE14 reminds me of Lee Kuan Yew who famously said, 'Even from my sick bed, even if you are going to lower me into the grave and I feel something is going wrong, I will get up'." he said.

ESM Goh added that this is a "historic and unprecedented moment" for Singapore's closest neighbour. "We wish them well and success, and offer Mahathir and the new government our continued goodwill and friendship," he said.

Mr Goh's term as Prime Minister of Singapore from 1990 to 2004 overlapped with Dr Mahathir's time in office till the latter retired in 2003.

Yeah he admits he has no balls like the Doctor.

The difference is that LKY is way beyond a "sick bed"

Woody should try rubbing his LKY's urn and perhaps his gene will emerge in a puff of smoke.

The son of Lee Kuan Yew will be begging The Father of all politicians soon.

In 2001 he hurt the feelings and sensitivity of the Malays in Malaysia.

Malaysia protests Singapore race remarks
The Malaysian foreign ministry has summoned Singapore's ambassador over remarks Singapore's Prime Minister, Goh Chok Tong, made about ethnic Malays.

Mr Goh said on Sunday that ethnic Malays fared better in Singapore than in neighbouring Malaysia.

The Malaysian foreign minister, Syed Hamid Albar, said the comment amounted to interference.

In a statement, Singapore's foreign ministry denied that Mr Goh had made offensive remarks.

Relations between the neighbouring states have been frosty since Singapore split from Malaysia in 1965.

He can do a Mahathir, if he feels that he is up to it.
No one, absolutely no one is stopping him to be one.

Woody's statement made in 2001 are no longer true. Local Malays are screaming discrimination from FTs and higher cost of living. More have moved up to JB.

Wooden Goh dispensing hard truths. Looks like he hurt the sensitive Bumi pride.

If only they work as hard as caring about pride. Mudlaysia could have easily overtaken Sinkieland with its huge land and resources.

He did nothing great and contributed very little during his PMship except to warm the seat and wishfully aspire to Swiss standard of living and so-called "more good years". Classic case of deadwood and power-loving politician who refuses to retire quietly. ESM title some more! So vain!

Will Pinky dare sue him? Najib never jailed M.

Killing the goose that has been laying him golden eggs for decades is the last thing on his mind.

You left out the biggest tagline that got the 69% hooked, back then...." ASSEStS Enhancement"....your Queenstown flat was S$10,000 now selling S$400,000. Singaporeans, bought it "line, hook"...& shouted "HUAT AH!".

Then the Swiss Standard Of Living....with the Home Improvement, the upgrading..the....& then the more good years....but the listener didn't catch the softer part of it...." MORE GOOD YEARS, for me"!!

If Najib wins the election , he will say another story .

Can’t you really trust politicians ?

Comparing Dr M to LKY is not a good comparison as far as Dr M is concerned. Does he care about what Woody think about LKY or even LKY?

Woody still does not know Dr M . His congrat sounds pretty hollow.

 

[batman1]

Woody still around as MP ? He really know how to maximize his returns with minimum input.
