Hang in there, Najib!

Whew! What a relief it was to read of Najib Abdul Razak’s two-hour rant to the Umno gang at its annual orgy of self-glorification declaring that he considers it his ‘duty’ to continue as party president and thus prime minister.

Because, though not generally very superstitious, for years now I’ve been counting on Najib to provide the last letter of the RAHMAN prophecy - that a leader with the initial ‘N’ will spell the end of the bleeding Umno/BN regime.

And, let’s face it, Najib has amply demonstrated that he’s precisely the man to fill the bill. ‘Bill’ being an entirely appropriate word to describe his deadly misrule of Malaysia, in light of the fact that he has overseen the alleged stealing and squandering of possibly even more countless billions of ringgit in public money than even Mahathir Mohamad and his cronies allegedly managed to get away with.
