During Mahathir's tenure in office, Malaysia's relationship with the West was turbulent. Early during his tenure, a disagreement with the United Kingdom over university tuition fees sparked off a boycott of all British goods, in what became known as the "Buy British Last" campaign. It also led to a search for development models in Asia, most notably Japan. This was the beginning of his famous "Look East Policy".

Wong Kan Seng, the House Leader and Minister for Home Affairs, gave another reason for the scheme -- the performance of the opposition MPs (there were four at that time) had been disappointin ...
