You may not like it and the politicians especially the PM-in-waiting who will be sworn in as the country’s sixth Prime Minister in another month may want to hide the fact but it appears that Malaysia may need to fight this recession alone.

Were we all not amazed when David Copperfield made the Statue of Liberty disappear? The jaws of the world dropped – literary – at such magical feat. How did he do it? Perhaps David Copperfield was actually gifted with powers of the supernatural. Perhaps he dabbled in the occult.

Dato’ Seri Abdul Hadi Awang’s call for a unity government should be taken seriously.
