Malaysia’s next PM calls for ‘massive’ change
MALAYSIA: Malaysia’s next leader Najib Razak has called for
“massive change” in the ruling party as it heads for critical leadership
polls this week, according to an interview published Sunday.
The United Malays National Organisation (UMNO), which has struggled
to find its feet after disastrous results in general elections a year
ago, is seeking to plot its future at a March 24-28 general assembly.
Najib will replace Prime Minister Abudllah Ahmad Badawi as head of
the party, which leads the Barisan Nasional (BN) coalition of race-based
parties, but many other top posts are up for grabs.
