'Zahid or Najib - Malaysia's post-GE15 prime minister'

On Bersatu's current course with Perikatan Nasional, the next prime minister after the 15th general election will likely be a toss-up between Umno president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi and his immediate predecessor Najib Abdul Razak.

This was the scenario put forth by Simpang Renggam MP Maszlee Malik (photo) who pointed out that Umno has made no indication that it intends to contest the 15th general election on the PN platform and is instead favouring its alliance with PAS under Muafakat Nasional.
