Mahathir bin Mohamad has a blog.

There’s no question that Mahathir bin Mohamad, former Prime Minister of Malaysia, is a pivotal figure in Malaysia’s post-independence development. He won a remarkable succession of elections that kept him in power for 22 years — and to him goes much of the credit for Malaysia’s emergence as a leading industrial and technological power. (It’s worth noting that despite Mahathir’s tempestuous relationship with the United States, it was under his aegis that the U.S. became Malaysia’s single largest trading partner and source of foreign investment.) So it’s big news that he has a blog. Check out the Reuters piece on this for background.
