In what is perhaps one of his most hard-hiting responses to date, Lim Kit Siang buries Muhyiddin Yassin under an avalanche of criticism.
Among others, the DAP stalwart dismissed Muhyiddin as a politician with “no class or standard” and as someone “utterly contemptuous and ignorant” of the truth.
The veteran politician, who locked horns with many deputy prime ministers in the past, noted that Muhyiddin was shaping out to be the “worst deputy prime minister and Umno deputy president in history”.
“I will not yet say that he is destined to be the nation’s worst education minister although he is undoubtedly leading the pack in a more competitive field,” he said in a press statement.
Lim was irked by Muhyiddin’s comment yesterday that DAP, which Umno leaders describe as a Chinese-chauvinist party, had never fielded a Malay candidate before.
‘Malay candidates in every polls’
Rubbishing the allegation, the Ipoh Timor MP said: “For the information of Muhyiddin and the ignoramuses thronging the upper echelons of the Umno leadership, DAP fielded Malay candidates in every one of the 10 general elections contested by DAP from 1969 to 2008.”
Lim said Muhyiddin had out-dimwitted Defence Minister and Umno vice-president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi with his remark.
