Be the PM for all Malaysians
At 61, Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob is not the youngest to be prime minister, but is the first one to be born after Merdeka. Looking at the ages of current protagonists, he resembles the next generation. Lead the way, dear PM9. We have to count on you!

Umno must get back on its feet
Umno has big role to play in organising opposition pact leading towards two-party system.
Malaysia Baru is for real
It doesn’t matter who will take over the reins from Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad – nation will be on irreversible mode.
Kiasu mustn’t be a serious character flaw
