In South Korea or japan, the president would resign immediately if there is a big scandal involved. However, in Malaysia, Najib has the skin thicker than both the elephant and rhino combined. He still does not get the message that he stumbled in so many aspects from corruption, several filthy scandals to 1MDB which will rock the nation not to mention his latest escapade using the government-leased plane for pleasure or personal trips abroad. Quote: There have been increasingly shrill, even desperate, calls of late for Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak to step down for any number of reasons, including for matters beyond his control. So far, not one of these calls has been even remotely convincing. The jury is still out on whether Najib, an industrial economist by training, cannot be relied on to manage the economy, especially now that the ringgit is weakening and searching questions are being raised on the national debt burden. These calls for Najib to quit emanate not from Umno or Barisan Nasional, but from people who have clearly nothing to do with whether the Prime Minister stays or goes. Neither would they be involved in choosing a new Prime Minister. In short, they have no locus standi. The latest theory being advanced by these voices in the political wilderness is that Umno/BN will lose Putrajaya come 2018 if Najib continues as Prime Minister. They say that even a week is a long time in politics. The year 2018 is more than a week away. Najib or no Najib, Umno/BN has to resign itself to the fact that it would lose Putrajaya some day, if not sooner, certainly later. No party in the world has ruled forever.
