News and current affairs
The release of Anwar Ibrahim soon afterwards raised the new premier's prestige further as a leader who could heal intra-Malay, and intra-Muslim, conflicts.
When Malaysia's prime minister, Dr Mahathir Mohamed, recently announced that he intended to resign, Malaysians of Chinese descent joined Mahathir's Malay party loyalists in demanding that he reconsider.
This campaign to denigrate Mr. Anwar cost Mahathir's party, the United Malay National Organization (UMNO), much support among ethnic Malays.
Dr. Mahathir Muhammed is stepping down after serving more than 22 years as the leader of Malaysia and its ruling United Malay National Organisation (UMNO).
Both began their careers as Malay nationalists who sought to promote the rights of the Malay majority after the British left.
But they also recognized that the country's sizable, and economically powerful, Chinese and Indian minorities, among other groups, were critical to the country's development and should be persuaded to accept the new Malay-led state as their own.
By 1997, Mahathir was at the pinnacle of his power, inspiring the country to believe that it would not be long before all of the country's communities would see themselves as sharing a common Malay nationality.
Despite wearing his Malay nationalism on his sleeve, Mahathir ultimately persuaded most non-Malays that he was not simply a communal leader but someone who cared for all Malaysia's communities.
He quickly took up a divisive constitutional battle against the hereditary Malay rulers, the nine sultans, and succeeded in curtailing their privileges and powers.
But he was determined to break the traditional Malay mold and succeeded in building a new--albeit still small--urban middle class.
This competitive approach towards Singapore is in line with the concerns he expressed in his influential book, The Malay Dilemma.
But the goal is still to build a Malaysia where Malays will always lead non-Malay minorities in shaping the country's future.
It makes a certain sense to speak of Asian values in Singapore, because it would be disrespectful to the Malay and Indian minorities to justify their subservience by invoking Chinese values.

Malay Muslims in Thailand's southern provinces are demanding their own political space.
All attempts to reduce Malay influence serve to mobilize this community - in both ethnic and religious terms.
Malay politicians have learned how to play this card very effectively.
As a result, many Malay-Muslims increasingly worry about the loss of familiar economic and political safeguards.
In particular, tensions have grown between the Malay majority and the country's large Chinese minority, which has been quicker to benefit from Malaysia's economic opening to the world.
Ustadz So had taught them that Thai rule over this historically Malay region was illegitimate, that Thai officials were cruel and heartless, and that the time had come for the Muslim population to rise up and expel the Buddhist infidels.
In Malaya, ethnic Chinese fought British and Malay regiments and police, which is roughly comparable to the Tamils' fight against the Sinhalese in Sri Lanka.
In contrast, the Malay Peninsula, including the island of Singapore, was the land of the Malays (Tanah Melayu) before the first Chinese and Indian immigrants came and settled there.
