Pro-M ex-diplomat says Malott not to be trusted

Some Malaysians trust this Mat Salleh

The world of spies has always intrigued me. I mean the one as served in cinemas through 007, Spook and MI, among others. It is a nasty world of dashing daredevils programmed to serve, ultimately, the evil agenda of their political masters. Former diplomat Mustapha Ong may or may not be a spy but it's easy to be intrigued by this man who openly reveres Mahathir but at the same time counts himself as a friend  of the Prime Minister's, two great men out to destroy each other. He called me twice in the last couple of days to remind me that "if you don't write something on your blog people will accuse you of eating the dedak (bribes). So you better write something". But a lot of people say I must write something that's NOT in favour of the Prime Minister if I wish to prove that I'm not on the take. Oh dear. So since I've not been writing bad things about Tun Mahathir, I have been bribed by the Old Man, too? I reminded Pak Mustapha that I was very close to Dr Mahathir's camp when Pak Lah was the Prime Minister, so I must have been on Mahathir's payroll back then. "Were you? You were!" In the world of spies, double agents are the worst!

A brief exchange with Pak Mustapha on his posting on Malott

Check out Mustapha Ong's Facebook h e r e. I think this is the first time someone has exposed Malott as such. What's intriguing is that, like Mustapha, Malott is also openly "supporting" Mahathir although, unlike Mustapha, the American has no love for the Old Man ...
