It's normal for Dr. M to be abnormal? *facepalm*

From the star:

THE opinion is divided on whether Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad’s visit to China has brought more harm than good for Malaysia.
The proponents of the Prime Minister will lay out the points to support their argument that what Dr Mahathir did was only for the good of the country. It is a reform of the kind of investments that Malaysia should welcome.
The critics, however, flayed the 93-year-old Prime Minister, pointing out that the demeanour and choice of words at the press conference between Dr Mahathir and China’s Prime Minister Li Keqiang indicated that the second-largest economy in the world was not pleased with Malaysia

Not sure, but maybe the star newspaper is a bit slow these days. The Star needs to find some direction as they are flip flopping between pandering to the political leadership and realising...hey most people see that Dr. M did lousy in China.  Let's report on that!  We are the newspaper for the rakyat!  Old news is slow news.  Need to be faster!

I already mentioned that Dr. M is a lousy foreign diplomat.  Basically they are trying to criticise him in a happy tone.  I think it's a disguised shot at Dr. M.  Baby steps I suppose for a historically pro government newspaper.
