MALAYSIA, which took over the chair of the Organisation of Islamic Conference (OIC) at its just-concluded summit, was taken on a roller-coaster ride by the foreign media over remarks by Datuk Seri Dr Mahathir Mohamad that were purportedly anti-Jew.
This seems like an early signal for the country, which took the chair of the 117-seat Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) in February, that it would not be plain sailing in the international arena when it also has to deal with the 57-member OIC.
