PETALING JAYA: From a young upstart in the civil service to the country's highest seat in the Government. This was the career path taken by Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi, as written by veteran journalist Datuk Chamil Wariya in his latest book.
Aptly titled The Political Journey of the Fifth Prime Minister, the book will give readers insights into Abdullah's career, beginning in the civil service and rising through the Umno ranks and eventually becoming the successor to the country's fourth premier Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad.
