Anwar vs Mahathir
Friday, September 23rd, 2005 | 5:30 pm @ SK
Ex-deputy prime minister Anwar Ibrahim sent a legal letter to the ex-premier Mahathir Mohamad for calling him a sodomist during a press conference at the Human Rights Commission of Malaysia (Suhakam) on Septemer 9, 2005.
The demands made in the letter are:
- A full and unqualified apology in writing which is to be published in all major newspapers and the electronic media.
- A sum of RM1,000 for the cost of issuing the demand letter.
- A sum of RM100 million as compensation for damages and injuries caused . Dr. Mahathir has 14 days to respond to the demand, failing which a defamation suit will be filed against him.
We’re going to witness a battle of an ancient figure vs another ancient figure, which will slowly evolve into another ancient story.

I realized Anwar is creating more trouble than he was before he was released. RM100m? Hahahaha….oh Anwar, you really have a crush on Mahathir and it is really deep. Now it looks like to those Chinese HK swordman drama, where they do nothing else and talk nothing else but ‘Revenge’

Very important who are the judges in the court. The law is just, but twist is what human can play.

[…] Via Malaysiakini: "Our client does not accede to any of the demands made in your letter…" As expected, Dr. Mahathir Mohamad shows Anwar Ibrahim the middle finger. […]
