The future PM of Malaysia is quoted in this malaysiakini article Najib says 'tough' challenge awaits him as he intends to win back the 2/3 majority that will enable the government to ride roughshod over all the voters as happened in the past.
Perhaps he is suffering from acute jet-lag but he should realise that ARB's press conference did not answer any doubts about that murder case. Even if the world is not undergoing the present turmoil, he would suffer from a lack of credibility from many Malaysians.
Given the extreme turmoil caused by the global meltdown, he wants Malaysians to accept past standards of accountability?
Let's face it - the world is undergoing a major transition with the USA losing a lot of its financial and political clout that will surely decline over the next 20 years. The Americans have been living beyong their means for umpteen years and now the day of reckoning is nigh.
In a similar fashion, Malaysia too has been too indulgent with the NEP that has sucked the nation dry for more than 35 years with only temporary results.
So I think the going will not be tough but impossible unless he is willing to make drastic changes.
