Unsurprisingly convicted criminal Najib Razak, free by virtue of the inability of the Appeal Court to find time to hear his appeal against conviction and long prison sentence, is not in favour of banning “frogs” in the Assembly. How else, after all, can a minority politician like Sabri put together a government?

Almost unbelievably Najib apparently spoke about MLAs who are “fond of other parties” having to stay in the party under the banner  of which they were elected! Poor unhappy frogs! Elected by deceit and forbidden to sell their votes for cash! Even in Malaysia it is difficult to accept such nonsense from a major crook and former Prime Minster. Malaysia boleh.
