  If it's so hard to present the facts to a stubborn Malaysian Govt who has clearly lost some credibility with their ppl with the publishing of the inter-govt correspondence, then allow our dear Dr M to have his last say.
  
  If he's gonna say we lost Maersk Sealand and evergreen to Malaysia and dun know how to react to such unprecendented competition, let him.
  
  If he claims that we pour hurtful remarks on them because of our "bad investments" overseas, let him.
  
  If he wants to scorn us as kiasu, then i say: let him.
  
  At the cost of shame and face, let him have the last say. In the end, we know all his claims to us attempting to "divert" the issue of our bad economy away from the ppl is sheer ludicrious.
  
  As if we have anything better to do.
  
  'It's very difficult now for us to write letters at all because we might as well negotiate through the media.'~ Dr M
  
  Hasn't he been doing that from the beginning? Using the media to apply pressure on us? Sigh.
  
  What's the use of arguing with a spolit brat (our neighbouring govt) if we give a response and they dun like it?

  Don't you notice how deafeningly quiet the Malaysian media had been lately after Dr M's galfriend letter comment....really sad to see a veteran premier stepping down at moment with such low self-esteem and little left of his credibility.

  The silence is due to their sulking, over the embarrasment caused by the truth being exposed for the world community to see.
  
  The repercussions to the credibility of the Malaysian Leadership will felt be far and wide.

  i think its a GOOD thing and commentators on BOTH sides should just shut the hell up and just let the diplomats and the ICJ do the talking! the media should just put a sock in it and reserve their opinions to themselves!
  
  this issue has been blown WAY out of proportion!
  
  its absolutely contrary to common sense and good taste to sling mud at each other over such a prolonged period of time
