The merits of political unity

IN the latest edition of the Economist Magazine, there is a dedicated article on the political resurgence of former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak. The author attributes this resurgence to the failure of the political forces that oppose Najib to come together and find a common purpose.

There is a consensus that Najib is a sublime political force because he knows the game. He has played very well to restore the political fortunes of Umno and Barisan Nasional.
