Najib: Opposition’s leadership structure farcical


(The Star) – Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak has described the Opposition’s recently announced leadership structure as farcical, saying it sounded like a return-to-work programme for old-age political pensioners.

He said it was also cynical and deceptive that there were three leaders but unclear as to who among them had the executive powers, and that DAP was deliberately kept invisible despite the party having the most number of MPs in the coalition.

“As for their Prime Minister candidate, the Opposition is so desperate they are now trying to make the people believe it will be a nonagenarian — who is not even a Member of Parliament and whose party has just one seat!

“But the truth is that in a democracy numbers don’t lie, and DAP remains by far the most dominant party in the Opposition,” he said when delivering his keynote address at Invest Malaysia 2017 on Tuesday.

Najib said the DAP leader of the last half century was now hiding behind the man who had jailed him, trying to deceive Malays into thinking that the former leader is their interim candidate for prime minister.
