LSS ni master spinner.
Jelas dari beberapa penulisannya, dia diupah oleh Najib untuk menceritakan keburukan Tun Mahathir.
LSS pun memang semua orang tahu mendapat dedak dari Najib.
Kan?

Hello Brader,
Jgn jumud sangat bila bagi pendapat. Show us your arguments with valid links, info and such. Then let all readers make up their own bloody mind la. Commenting with 1-2 liners with hollow statements, topped it up with name calling and such will only reflecting how low your thinking is.
Come on. Grow up.

Kalau makan dedak ni kan binatang. Hai kesian LSS ni kena kecam tapi bukan dia keseorangan sbab banyak yg menyokong. Hai hai banyak juga yg makan dedak oi. Jadi susahlah kalau kita nak berfakta dgn binatang.

i think young people like u dont understand what is actually this so called 'bi-lateral relation of two countries'. to make matter worse, u had this bad feeling about mahathir. of course u do have that, dont deny it. waste time only.
when u are managing a country, it is very different with your household matter. its not like 1+1 necessarily be 2. under mahathir, 1+1 is either two or more. when he started PLUS - very good initiative - everyone was saying he was crazy in some sort. the project - infrastructure and of course the contract rewarded - was a success and now you can go back on festive seasons in better conditions.
u are not belong to the age of travelling old trunk roads from KL to Penang, do you? so u cannot appreciate PLUS much. u dont experience the long hours going to KL and when the day turned night some travellers simply stop driving and spend the night on the sides of the roads. not to mention the animal crossing unexpectedly and lives lost. when i say appreciate i meant the infrastructure and the contract given. towns bloomed and of course nowadays u can see singaporeans using it as well, strutting their posh cars and bikes. the toll is troublesome but the contract was necessary as government cannot afford to pay for it itself. u are one of the many vilified mahathir for the toll.
so the same with managing the neighbour singapore.
u are not born the time when things were hard and we were getting hard done by our own (then) singapore. some people say it was a mistake to let kuan yew got singapore, but many appreciate him doing the best he could at the moment and with resources within his hands.
it takes someone with mahathirs will to compete with singapore. call it whatever u want - dendam or hate or whatever,i call it competition- but the fact that during mahathir we were at par on many things with singapore. sing dollar vs ringgit? malaysia not losing that much. eco-sport? malaysia. strategic ports? malaysia. and did u know that before najib or abdullah signed the stupid railway deal (Tanjong Pagar), the most south KTMB go is SINGAPORE? u can google the pictures and save it for your generations that they will know that. quite good pictures.
of course we lost some during mahathir, in relation to managing the neighbour singapore. but i tell u what. singapore will only give us what they feel its not terminal to them. so after abdullah/najib signed off the Tanjong Pagar deal, what HAVE we GOT? as far i know, we havent got anything in return despite all the news billions, millions investments. but what i am sure of at the moment is, KTMB no longer go there. thats LOST of REVENUES. and revenues i dont mean about dollar and cents, but all in every matter - tourism value, and the sense of pride where people go Tanjong Pagar and all they see was KERETAPI TANAH MELAYU. so we lost out even before we gain something.
managing a country is no child play, and u cannot have the need for any other outside people that understand us as a country, let alone any arab for that. its a different play altogether and it needs a different animal. not many can understand the whole matter. not u, looking to your writing. u dont understand it so thats why u dont have locus standi to vilify mahathir like u did.
you know,the water deal is not just about delivering water. its about giving u the upper hand on everything or something. in these so called 'bi-lateral countries relation' it is about that - the upper hand on everything.
mahathir gave us that.

Sorry. It wasn't his idea to build the North-South Highway and never did he start building it. It started construction in 1977 and he just privatized it to his friends.
Please stop with the often repeated propaganda that Mahathir built the NS highway: http://limsiansee.blogspot.my/2015/12/legacy-problem-solved-impact-on-plus.html

Abang, before Maha was in charge, Ringgit was literally on par with Singapore. Not 0.5.

LSS........ gua gelak guling2 la bila lu cakap North-South Highway tu bukan idea Mahathir. Lu beranak tahun berapa?
Habis sapa punya idea? Mesti lu mau cakap itu idea Najib! Or if not Najib must be the father Tun Razak. Ha Ha Ha
Memang la Mahathir privatised the construction to who ever that he trusted. So lu mau Mahathir himself to drive the bulldozer and changkul sendiri itu tanah ka. Molo la ini so called LSS!
Lu beranak tahun berapa?
Lu ambik data-data sana sini to impress people yang bodoh macam lu. Bangang macam lu. Moron macam lu.
LSS is the master spinner. MORON!

Bacalah buku. Setiap kali makan propaganda zaman Tun M.
June 1977 The construction of the North-South Expressway had begun.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronology_of_the_Malaysian_Expressway_System#1970s
Siapa yang moron ini?
Another thing. Between 1980 and 1985, the MHA managed to complete the construction of several phases of the project amounting to the total length of 366 kilometer or 41% out of the proposed 823 kilometer highway at a total cost of RM3.2 Billion of govt funds.
In 1986, the entire project was transferred to the then UMNO-crony Halim Saad's UEM group even though it was M despite the fact that UEM’s offer was the most expensive, requires the highest amount of government’s financial support and has minimum revenue, currency and interest rate protection by the govt (see table) and also despite the fact that it has no experience whatsoever.
On top of that, the existing 366km already built using govt money was injected into the now completely privately owned PLUS. And they were allowed to collect tolls from these existing roads (built using govt funds) from us to pay to complete the remaining 500km - a task which they eventually completed but at a 70% cost over-run and two years late.
The government even funded PLUS half of the initial budget of RM3.5billion via a govt support loan.
lu benar-benar percaya itu Halim Saad bukan kroni Mahathir ke?

KL Seremban highway - The construction of the 63.4 km (39.3 mile) controlled-access expressway from Kuala Lumpur to Seremban began on 27 March 1974 as one of the Second Malaysia Plan (RMK-2) project, with the total cost of RM32.9 million.[2] It consists of 14 interchanges, 2 laybys and 6 toll plaza (Sungai Besi, UPM, Kajang, Bangi, Nilai and Seremban). Funded by a loan by the World Bank,[3] the expressway was constructed in three phases; the first phase was from Kuala Lumpur to Nilai, while the second phase was from Nilai to Seremban.[2] The third phase was the rehabilitation of the old Federal Route 1 from Kuala Lumpur to Seremban as a toll-free alternative to motorists.[2] The expressway was opened to motorists on 16 June 1982, where the Minister of Works at that time, Datuk Seri S. Samy Vellu himself became the first motorist to pay the toll of the expressway.[3] The Kuala Lumpur-Seremban Expressway was the first expressway in Malaysia to implement the closed-toll system in Malaysia.
1974 itu Mahathir sudah jadi PM ke?
Lim Sian See21 February 2016 at 07:15
Semasa kerajaan mencadangkan pembinaan lebuh raya ekspres jarak jauh pertama negara pada tahun 1977, kerajaan telah menjemput beberapa buah syarikat untuk membina lebuh raya tersebut. Pembinaan lebuh raya tersebut asalnya dicadangkan untuk diswastakan sepenuhnya, yang mana syarikat konsesi diberi kuasa untuk membina, mengendalikan dan mengutip tol di lebuh raya tersebut. Namun, tiada satu pun syarikat yang berani hendak membina lebuh raya tersebut. Apa tidaknya, pada masa itu ekonomi negara tidak begitu menentu disebabkan turun naik harga timah, getah dan kelapa sawit.
Oleh kerana tiada satu pun syarikat yang berani hendak membina Lebuhraya Utara-Selatan ini, maka kerajaan tiada pilihan selain membinanya sendiri. Ia menjurus kepada penubuhan Lembaga Lebuhraya Malaysia (LLM) pada 24 Oktober 1980 mengikut Akta 231. Pada masa itu, LLM memang berfungsi bagi merancang, membina, mengendalikan, menyelenggara dan mengutip tol bagi Lebuhraya Utara-Selatan E1 dan E2. Majlis pecah tanah disempurnakan pada tahun 1981,
1977 dan 1980, itu Mahahtir sudah jadi PM ke?
the train still stops in singapore, but before the agreement, KTM has to do the money losing ride in just to retain control of the tracks' land.
DS Najib got a wonderful deal out of singapore.
given a choice, i'd rather bleed ktm and negotiate from a stronger position.
do u even know how much singapore has to pay to get back the tracts of land of not much use?

Agree with DrMpower's opiniom. The old man Tun had done so much to this country many of which you younger generations took for granted as given.
I simply cannot imagine if it were Anwar or Paklah or Najib were the PM during those 22 years of DrM.
Tun was effective and exactly what malaysia needed.
Stop you dendam to wash off his achievements.
Lim Sian See21 February 2016 at 05:56
apa itu? kalau ada tulis salah ataupun bukan Mahathir dalam video itu yang meminta sedekah dari Singapura.
Bolehlah Mahathir kata itu bukan aku tapi klon Siam.
And the dendam is out because HIS DENDAM came out.
Many once respected him but all his skeletons come out.
Let me remind you that this man fought for bangsa dan agama for 22 years but when he was done, only 3 Muslim Melayu was in the top 10 richest in year 2014.
Coincidentally, one of these 3 was his son.
You think it was an accident?

In fact his hatred started years ago when a taxi driver refuse to stop him in front of his house

I once respected this man. .but the way he is attacking the PM. .is disgraceful. ..He is a hateful man. .Instead of letting us remember him for all his efforts in the 22 years. .He has totally destroyed his image and achievements

Plan but not building is different between having the balls to bulldoze and build it.
I think many people forget getting an upper hand in a poker game.why the invent the game at the first place,we never know.
Suprise that many people forget to secure the upper hand.not saying anybody stupid,but must be seen not stupid is as equal important as well.
God speed

yang cakap nak pinjam wang itu dari laporan akhbar luar negeri termasuk Singapura.

LSS, kamu dah wujud ke belum masa crisis economy tu? Apa yang singapore buat pada waktu itu? Mereka tawarkan interest yang tinggi untuk rakyat M'sia yang membuat simpanan di bank2 di spore.
Kat atas kamu kata "If you don't believe me, have a look at this November 2008 video of Mahathir asking Singapore for financial help on live TV - which of course was never reported in Malaysia.Sekarang konar pulak, so Tolong berikan link akhbar yang melaporkan tdm nak pinjam 5 billion.

He have spent 22 years keeping our sovereignty away from US/Israel, and I greatly appreciated that, but his act the past year would have undo those efforts if his smear campaign manages to get the Pakatuns into Putrajaya and in essence deliver us to the Jews on a silver dulang.

Satu lagi cerita dongeng propaganda menyembah Mahathir dizaman rakyat masa itu xde pilihan mklumat.. hanya tv radio shj.. so seem he had won la the propaganda. Now baru kita tau DEB itu hanya milik Mokhzani, Mirzan, Mukhriz dn satu org kroni nya. Lagi berjuta Melayu makan asap shj. Why mahathir sgt takut dhn BR1M? Takut rakyat bypass kroni freely utk dpt rasa duit kekayaan negara? Cerita dongeng mahathir sudah tamat dan rubbished. Sorry to say it

Tun M and many others are trying to rescue UMNO and BN by asking Najib to step down. If Najib were to remain as PM in GE14, you could foresee the outcome. That is what we want to avoid. The RM42 juta is real and LSS could not deny it. 1MDB is real ...who gave the green light for 1MDB to invest in the JVC with Petrosaudi bypassing the Board's directive if not Najib??
LSS.....another great forensic article from u.....mahathir has nothing but hatred for almost anything not in his favour. for those of u out there who worships mahathir, pleassssse open up your mind & do some reading, dont just blindly support mahathir !!!!!

Among all of Malaysia's PMs, Mahathir was the one who had the best opportunity - 22 years and strong oil income - to lay a strong foundation for our country.
Instead, he concentrated on letting his cronies build quasi monopolies that allowed money to be sucked from the country and the rakyat.
He gave the Malay people racial pride preached by BTN and sustained by oil money. But he never got them to develop the knowledge, skill and temperament needed to play their rightful part in the nation's economy. Had he done his job, the Malays wont be still weak that they continue to need special assistance.
