Former Deputy Prime Minister Tun Ghafar Baba is looking forward to more serene days after a tumultuous couple of years of family grief and strife. He spoke to JOCELINE TAN days after celebrating his 80th birthday with his family and close friends. 

TUN Ghafar Baba’s house lies in a cul-de-sac up in the quieter side of Bangsar. It is a simple house, the architecture little changed from the days he moved in back in the early 1970s.
