BANGKOK: Datuk Seri Dr Mahathir Mohamad, who will arrive here today for his last Asia Pacific Economic Co-operation (Apec) Summit appearance as Malaysian Prime Minister, is expected to get considerable media attention.
US President George W. Bush and host Thai Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra may be the stars of the show but Dr Mahathir’s OIC opening speech in Putrajaya on Thursday, which has raised a furore in the United States, Europe and Australia, has again made him one of the most sought-after leaders to be interviewed.
