Passage Three Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:
When Anwar out of the way, will Mahathirs war against foreign speculators actually help turn the economy around The view of international financial analysts-foreigners-was largely pessimistic. Paul Krugman, from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, has suggested that the kind of imposed by the IMF may not always be appropriateand that it might be necessary for countries like Malaysia to close the doors and pump up production to buy time for reforms. But after Mahathir took that advice, Krgman quickly addressed an open letter to the Malaysian leader, warning that capital controls can work only as a sTOPgap measurewhile putting together more fundamental banking1 and business reforms. Capital control put more power into the hands of administrators2, and people are rightly worried about abuse of powers, says Simon Flint of Independent Economic Analysis in Singapore. Intervention just leads to corruption3.
Mahathir has heard and rejected such arguments before. Since his days fighting the British colonialists, he has dreamed of creating a Malays-assertive, competitive, hardworking who could stand up and be proud. If nothing else, Mahathir and his business friends have always thought big-developing the worlds tallest building, the biggest dam, an Asian Silicon4 Valleyanything to increase the sense of national pride. Two decades of big ideas and affirmative action policies have helped pull Malays up from poverty. Now Mahathir has lives to see the birth of his New Malay Man-and, in small irony5, it has turned out to be Anwar. With all his confidence and worldly sophistication, Anwar epitomize the ideal Mahathir has sought all his life. Last week Mahathir moved to destroy his own creation, the rebel son who has stood beside the old nationalist as the answer to his dream.
