These days, Najib Razak is a lonely soul in the UMNO circles. The warlord are all busy drawing lines of engagement and none have included him in their plans. Not the ones that matter anyway. Sadly, Najib may only be left with wife Rosmah Mansor as his companion. Even his cousin Hishamuddin seems to have deserted him.
The 58-year old Najib may well make it into the Malaysian Book of Records as being the premier with the shortest term in office and on top of that, the only Prime Minister who has yet to receive the people’s mandate via a general election.
"He is now in a very weakened state, weaker even than Abdullah Badawi towards the end. There aren't many successors, only his deputy Muhyiddin and very likely Tengku Razaleigh," PAS leader Dzulkefly Ahmad told Malaysia Chronicle.
