KUALA LUMPUR – Relations between Singapore and Kuala Lumpur are being put to the test as Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad revisits a delicate territorial issue.

On Wednesday, the newly elected Mahathir said Malaysia plans to enlarge some offshore rocks near Singapore, a proposal that could rankle its southern neighbor. Days earlier, the prime minister canceled a planned cross-border rail link.

“It is our intention to enlarge them to form a small island,” said Mahathir.

The prime minister was referring to the Middle Rocks, two tiny islets separated by over 300 meters of open sea.

Back in 2008, the Malaysian government concluded the signing of a US-Malaysia FTA with 58 redlines or “red-stops”, which discontinued the two-year negotiation.

Among leading protagonists was then Agriculture minister Muhyiddin Yassin, who mentioned that he would not compromise the livelihood of local farmers. He was even quoted as saying ‘over my dead body’ by some quarters.
