With UMNO’s general assembly fast approaching at the end of this year, pundits have been buzzing with speculations on the possible power struggle between Prime Minister Najib Razak and his deputy Muhyiddin Yassin.
58 year-old Najib, son of former Prime Minister Tun Abdul Razak, entered the political scene like a rocket shooting for the stars. Armed with an education from the University of Nottingham and experience in trade, Najib became the youngest deputy minister in the country when he was appointed Deputy Minister of Energy, Telecommunications, and Post at the age of 25. At 29 he became Menteri Besar of Pahang, also the youngest in the country.
Can Najib stave off a bullish Muhyiddin
