Res ipsa loquitur - the facts speak for themselves!

Truly - deputy premier  Najib Razak is an individual best positioned with wide experience and a track record to lead the nation as its sixth prime minister come June 2010.

Those who have had direct and intimate rapport with the deputy premier in handling national issues and problems that would crop up from time to time would understand what I am emphasising.

In all my past meetings with the deputy premier, I have always found him to be well-versed with the issues I brought before him and his advice and insights have always been fair, reasonable, strategic, well-positioned and results-orientated.

He takes time and patience to advice you and his advice is extremely sound and timely. And as such, I join the chorus and thrust of the former prime minister Mahathir Mohamad call that Najib is the ‘best positioned’ in having all the required traits to be Malaysia’s sixth prime minister.

And in view of the manifold problems the nation is facing be it involving global, political, economical and governance issues or discontent among the various communities and political parties, it is pertinent that Najib immediately focuses his attention on these matters.

In view of many new challengers and political happenings of late, it may be crucial and timely that he put in place a team of high-powered professionals to assist him to address and manage these many issues of state and of others politically created to derail his political career.

This is vital so that Najib’s energy and resources can be focused on matters of state and not be wasted addressing conspiracies and allegations that his many political enemies and others within have placed before him of late.

In fact, it is obvious that there is indeed a partnership of ‘black hands’ that have come together to pit him against not only unsubstantiated allegations but also to engage him in wasteful political tussles with former deputy prime minister Anwar Ibrahim.

It is so obvious there is a ‘black hand’ working behind the scenes to plan the political destruction and downfall of Najib and it nearly worked if not for vigilance.

It is a fact that Najib is well respected both in and out of the country. He is articulate and well- versed to address any issue locally or abroad on short notice. He has the experience and track record.

And he has done so with distinction and this is the reason why he should return to continue doing what he does best – managing the micro and macro issues the nation faces while allowing a special team of trusted professionals to address the various distractions strategically with credibility.

The year 2010 is not far away and time is of the essence. Najib has to act now to deal with the various new political shenanigans he faces in and out of the party to remain on course to be the nation’s sixth prime minister.
