TRULY A COLOURFUL COUNTRY BEYOND HISTORY ;With Anwar vowing a "Malaysian Spring", the three-party opposition can claim the momentum and point to success governing four states won in 2008.
ReplyDeleteIt pledges a national shake-up including reform of policies favouring Malays in business and education that irk the sizeable Chinese and Indian minorities and are criticised as a drag on national competitiveness.
Anwar also promises to free state-controlled traditional media and break cosy ties between politics and business.
Sensing the mood, Najib has made cautious reforms including replacing some repressive laws. But despite solid personal approval ratings, surveys show his government's image has not improved.
"The reality is that UMNO has not reformed in the key areas needed -- corruption, arrogance of power, racial inclusion and a fundamental vision for where to take the country," said Bridget Welsh, a Malaysia politics expert at Singapore Management University.
The Barisan coalition has 135 of parliament's 222 seats to Pakatan's 75, and a reduced Barisan majority is widely forecast. But dozens of seats are considered too close to call.
The stakes are high for both sides.
A Barisan loss threatens a Malay elite accustomed to political dominance and its rich business perks.
Najib, meanwhile, is under pressure to improve on 2008's showing and could face a career-ending UMNO leadership challenge if he fails, party insiders say.
If the opposition falls short it must confront life after Anwar, who says he would step aside as its figurehead in that event.
Anwar was once UMNO's heir-apparent but was ousted in 1998 and jailed for six years on sex charges after a power struggle with his boss, then-premier Mahathir Mohamad.
