BERLIN: Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak said Tuesday he opposed calling early elections before the 2018 deadline, saying such a decision should not be based on “any single factor”.

“We rest on our record. We have a strong record and we will continue to tell the Malaysian people that our government is still the best choice,” he told reporters here after a meeting with German Chancellor Angela Merkel, according to a Reuters report.
