‘Najib won’t be PM after next GE’

This bold prediction is made by PKR's Johor chief Chua Jui Meng, who said Pakatan will topple BN by then.


JOHOR BARU: Johor PKR chief Chua Jui Meng today warned that Najib Tun Razak would be ousted as the Prime Minister in the next general election.

Commenting on the recent remarks on the Chinese community by MCA and Najib, Chua, the former health minister, said he was confident that Pakatan Rakyat would topple the Barisan Nasional government.

“Hey, Datuk Seri Najib, you ingat (you should be the one to be wary), after the 13th general election will you still be the Prime Minister of Malaysia?

“It is not you. I am confident that (opposition leader) Anwar Ibrahim will bring your downfall in the next election,” said Chua to the loud applause of PKR delegates at its one-day Johor state convention here today.

Yesterday, Najib was reported to have said that if the Chinese community decided not to support BN and MCA, they would lose representation in the government. He had said:”the Chinese cannot expect to get strong representation if they vote for the opposition”.

Najib was supporting an earlier announcement by MCA that it will not seek any positions in the government if it performs badly in the next general election.

Nobody with miss MCA

On MCA’s stand on cabinet positions, Chua’s retort was:”I say, if (MCA president) Dr Chua Soi Lek and MCA members don’t want to be in the cabinet… good luck to you, nobody will miss you.”

On Najib’s call to PAS to break ties with DAP, Chua said:”Obviously, it’s better to be with DAP than be with Umno.”

“(Umno) it is a party that goes against Islam. Nik Aziz himself says, we need to stay away from Umno, we don’t want to be tainted by Umno and its politics,” he said.

“We will never divorce from each other or be divided. We will together bring down this unjust and unGodly Barisan Nasional,” he said sternly.

Najib had called on PAS to cooperate with BN and sever ties with DAP, saying that both parties’ ideologies clashed.

He said DAP’s “Malaysian Malaysia ” slogan was clearly different from PAS’ Islamic state objective and that Umno had done more for Islam.
