JAKARTA History today, 10 years ago, June 5, 2015, the Malaysian police forced the former Prime Minister (PM) of Malaysia, Mahathir Mohamad, who was giving a speech criticizing the government to stop. Mahathir is considered to be making a lot of noise because the material of the speech vilifies the government which is the sack of another country.

Mahathir's presence as Malaysia's leader was greeted with great fanfare. Mahathir is considered to be able to bring change. Mahathir was also hailed to increase the lives of the Malays. This wish was retaliatory. Mahathir prioritized the Malays.

He showed this condition in his policies. Mahathir even tried to build a new government center which was later known as Putrajaya. The center of government was deliberately built as a form of identity that Malaysia had a Malay character.

The construction has indeed received criticism from here and there. Mahathir is considered a waste. However, Mahathir did not care. He continued to build. Even though quietly. Development even continued even though Malaysia itself was hit by an economic crisis in the 1998 era.

In particular, Mahathir was able to bring Malaysia through the crisis. His greatness continues to be discussed. Moreover, he is the main brain of the presence of various kinds of megaprojects in Malaysia. A project whose results are important markers of Malaysia's progress.

This neat and organized city is the culmination of PM Mahathir's achievement, a legacy after 18 years in power. The location of this new city has an important meaning for Mahathir. He is the one who helps change Malaysia from a country that relies on commodities palm oil, rubber, and tin.'

"Malaysia below has become one of the most diversified and dynamical economies in Asia. PM Mahathir has also inaugurated a long list of mega projects: among them the Kuala Lumpur international airport and the Petronas Tower," Thomas total wrote in his writing in The New York Times newspaper entitledMalaysia Shy About Cost as a Grand New City Rises (1999).

The most known criticism appeared in the pulpit of the Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) forum 1, at the Son of the World Trade Center, Malaysia on June 5, 2015. Mahathir got the opportunity to give a speech.

Instead of praising the Najib Razak government, Mahathir criticized his policies. Mahathir sees Malaysia as colonized again. This condition is because Najib himself is considered as a sack from countries such as Singapore and the United States (US). Malaysia no longer stands on its own feet.

Najib always could not resist the wishes of the two countries. A thing that made the Malaysian people lose a lot. The content of the sensitive speech made Malaysian police immediately force them to stop Mahathir who was giving a speech. The police action received criticism from within and outside the country.

"I came here today to talk about something that is missing, belonging to all of us. He is too dedicated to Singapore, he is too dedicated to America. So is our country already independent? Or is it still colonized? I see our country is still colonized," Mahathir said as quoted on the tempo page.co, June 5, 2015.
