The Star (1/5/08): Former Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad joined the swelling ranks of politicians going online with his own blog simply named “Dr Mahathir Mohamad,” at www.chedet.com.

“This site is dedicated to publishing my writings as and when I am able to pen my thoughts and opinion,” he says.

In his first posting The Appointment of Judges on Thursday, he tackles the issue of judicial reform, noting that there have been no details on how the recently announced Judicial Appointments Commission will work.

He also notes that the Constitution would have to be amended to validate any changes in how judges are currently appointed.

Any such Constitutional amendment would require a two-third’s majority ruling in Parliament, and Dr Mahathir also questions if Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi’s government would be able to gather support from the Opposition to make this a reality.

Dr Mahathir, 82, was Prime Minister of Malaysia from 1981 to 2003.

NST (1/5/08): Former prime minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad today joined the blogging community with his own blog accessible at www.chedet.com.

In its preface, Dr Mahathir said the site “is dedicated to publishing my writings as and when I am able to pen my thoughts and opinions.” Introducing himself as the Malaysian prime minister from 1981 to 2003 in his “about me” column, his first article touched on the appointments of judges and the proposed Judicial Appointments Commission, which he posted at 1.27am today.

In it he said the appointment of judges is provided for in the Constitution and therefore if changes are to be made, the Constitution needs to be amended.

C.H.E. Det, was Dr Mahathir’s pseudonym for his articles submitted to the Sunday Times between 1946-1950, which mainly touched on Malay economic and political predicaments then.

Dr Mahathir, 82, has been known for his passion for writing and has written several books including the controversial Malay Dilemma published in 1970.
He now joins his daughter, Datin Paduka Marina who has been blogging a few years with her www.Rantings.com blog (Bernama)
