Iskandar Puteri MP Lim Kit Siang fears that the BN's landslide victory in the Malacca state assembly election may signal the imminent return of former prime minister Najib Abdul Razak to his previous post.

“The most ominous implication of the Malacca state election is that Najib may become the 10th Prime Minister of Malaysia after the national 15th general election.

“Is this what Malaysians deserve? First to get rid of the man who made Malaysia infamous as a ‘kleptocracy at its worst’ and then to receive him back four years later as a saviour of the nation, free of all corruption charges and to install a model kleptocracy for the world?” said Lim.
