Welcome friends, James Corbett here, CorbettReport.com coming to you, as always, from the sunny climes of Western Japan,

although, as you may be able to tell from my attire, I just flew in from Malaysia.

If you'd like to know why I was in Malaysia, then I highly suggest you check out my recently released podcast episode on War Is a Crime,

in which you'll see the proceedings of the conference that I was attending

there in Kuala Lumpur, specifically a conference commemorating the 20th anniversary of the Kuala

Lumpur Initiative to Criminalize War. If you'd like to know more about that, please do check

out that podcast episode where you can see my complete speech to that conference,

which I have been informed by multiple people was a powerful and moving speech,

the audio of which left something to be desired in the recording,

but the complete transcript of that speech is now available on corporate report.com.

So I suggest that you do check that out. And when you do,

you'll note that that episode also included a snippet of my interview with former Malaysian

prime minister, Toon Dr. Mahatir Mohammed. Well, in the interest of putting everything on the

record, I'd like to present that entire conversation in which we talk, of course, about

Mahatir's spearheading of the initiative

to criminalize war, as well as his trips to Japan, his 100th birthday, and other subjects besides.

I think it's an interesting conversation. I hope you enjoy.

Hello, this is James Corbett of Corbett Report.com reporting for global research.ca

here in Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia.

And today I'm talking to former Malaysian Prime Minister, to Dr. Mahatir Mohamed.

Toadmoud Mr. Mohamed here, thank you very much for your time today.

You're welcome.
