Kleptocrat and Wheeler Dealer: Najib Razak


The world renown kleptocrat, Najib Razak (a ruler who uses political power to steal his country's resources) in Malaysia is now also known as a big-time political wheeler dealer. He is willing to and can do anything to maintain influence and hang on to the stolen wealth.

In a book written by his ex-aide, Romen Bose, it was revealed that Najib was willing to concede his prime ministership to his political foe, Wan Azizah to hang on to political power despite losing the Malaysian general election in 2018.

Najib said, "I spoke to Anwar (Ibrahim), as you know, and Wan Azizah can be sworn in as prime minister immediately if Anwar can agree that PKR will come out of Pakatan (Harapan) and be BN friendly. But he has not responded so far. I am happy to hand over to Wan Azizah and Zahid can be deputy prime minister, as long as we keep Mahathir away from the premiership."

Anwar Ibrahim is Wan Azizah's husband and the de-facto leader of Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) then. As the history played out, Anwar did not agree to do the deal with Najib.

Malaysians BEWARE!!! Najib was and is till willing to do anything to hang on to power directly or indirectly in order to keep the wealth stolen from country during his tenure as the prime minister of Malaysia 2009-2018.
