From national unity to education; from political stability to international relations; from the economy to women and youth, Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad gives his frank views and unique insights into these issues of Malaysian concern, mixing history with contemporary politics in his customary forthright and witty style. The keynote addresses contained in this volume were delivered at the Perdana Discourse Series, jointly organised by Perdana Leadership Foundation and Universiti Teknologi Mara, from 2004-2009. Also included are selected held after each keynote address. This collection of Tun Dr. Mahathir’s keynote speeches is a valuable reference on Malaysian history and issues.
