Did you hear the joke about Mahathir and Samy?

A bit of comic relief this Sunday, courtesy of Mahathir via Bernama:

Asked whether (the new) Makkal Sakti (party) would affect MIC’s position as the main Indian-based party in the country, Dr Mahathir said: “I think MIC’s influence has already been diluted.”

Asked on reports that MIC president Datuk Seri S. Samy Vellu might consider taking a two-month break from his duties as party president, Dr Mahathir said two months was not enough.

“It should be extended to about 20 years. He has been there for 30 years. The longer he (Samy Vellu) sits there, the more people are going to hate him,” he said.

Is Mahathir speaking from experience? The irony is that Mahathir himself should have gone on extended leave as well instead of staying on as PM for 22 long years.

Will Samy now respond, “Saya penuh-penuh sokong cadangan Dato Seri”?

How times have changed; it seems like only yesterday when the two of them were best of buddies. Remember how before Mahathir could finish his sentence, Samy would be leaping from his seat to express full support?
