The government of Mahathir will continue and so will his policies in large. He has military ties with the United States. He has joint military exercises. He has aircraft carriers calling. He doesn't publicize it but he is friendly despite his rhetoric.
Rhetoric is one thing.
Money, investments, having important and potent friends is something else. And I would suggest there is a certain, I wouldn't call it love-hate but ambivalence in the relationship between Mahathir and the United States in particular. I think, among other things, Mahathir would like to have 250 million people. I mean simply that he has a nation of 20 million people. And he a person with 18 years experience.
