1. Sound like anyone we know?
<snip from the same article>
Mahathir defended controls such as the detention without trial of terrorism suspects and the banning of communists from elections as essential to maintaining democracy.

While the government believed in free speech, he said, it also had to ensure that racial sentiments in Malaysia's multicultural society were not inflamed.

He described national unity as the country's greatest asset.

I bet they have those "free speech" areas in Malaysia just like W has. Oh boy. Look at the template we have created for the world.
