Pardon No Pardon X-mans Days Numbered

 Adapted from Murray Hunter.


 
 

speculation over pardon for Najib serving 12 year jail 
Any immediate release of Najib could bring down X-man
UMNO support for X-man conditional upon pardoning Najib
Zahid not done enough to secure Najib pardon 

Najib pardon at the heart of survival for X-man
whether X-man can remain for full term is at stake
X-man very coy about any pardon for Najib
pardons board not yet officially considered the case

  • issue of further charges against Najib in court
  • If Najib convicted again second pardon would be needed

pardon is not solution about Najib
complex game behind Najib staying in prison
X-man holds key to Najib’s fate
(some) UMNO factions would revolt if Najib pardoned
would bring immense anger and tarnish credibility

coming state elections determine pardon for Najib
UMNO, Amanah, PKR (likely) wiped out during state elections 
PH-UMNO never return to government

PKR no inroads into Malay heartlands 
Amanah may cease to exist
Zahid unable to rebuild UMNO support

X-man's days are numbered
