Seeing Malaysia My Way

He is the author of "The Malay Dilemma Revisited: Race Dynamics in Modern Malaysia, Malaysia in the Era of Globalization, " and "An Education System Worthy of Malaysia."

Safely beyond the reach of Malaysia's censorship laws, he writes freely and without restraint, save for common courtesy and good taste.

He spares no individual or institution, easily skewering the sacred cows. He aims his dart at the most hyper-inflated targets, easily and effectively puncturing them to reveal their hollowness. These range from the obscenely ostentatious Malaysian weddings to special privileges, and from Prime Minister Mahathir to youths who do Malaysia proud.
