SINGAPORE: A Kadir Jasin, the media adviser to the prime minister, said today he wishes to see all bilateral issues between Malaysia and Singapore resolved under Dr Mahathir Mohamad.He was responding to a question at a seminar on “Challenges Facing the New Malaysia”, organised by the Iseas-Yusof Ishak Institute.
According to him, the government at the highest level, especially Mahathir, was well aware of the situation.“He could be making noise about airspace, coastal waters and cheap raw Malaysian water to Singapore, but that is politics.“If you don’t talk, people think you are dead already, or you are not interested.Kadir noted that the posturing against Singapore “is as old as history probably”.
Touching on the 1962 water agreement, Kadir said: “I suppose we should forget about this quarrel about the last water agreement. Think of a new one.”
