Channel 8 - Focus

09 July 2015

Regarding Wall Street Journal’s allegations of Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak having accepted money from 1MDB, Dr Oh Ei Sun, senior fellow from NTU RSIS, said that he believes WSJ will not make such strong allegations baselessly. Dr Oh feels that PM Najib should come out and clarify the accounts. Meanwhile, it is still too early to tell whether UMNO will forsake Najib. NTU RSIS Asst Prof Md Nawab Md Osman said that currently PM Najib is under attack and needs to restructure the Cabinet to consolidate support, both within the cabinet and his party. How the power play will turn out remains to be seen.
