THE END OF THE RAHMAN PROPHECY: AN EVALUATION

With the installation of Dato Seri Najib Razak as the 6th Prime Minister of Malaysia on 3rd April, the RAHMAN Prophecy is now fulfilled. It marks the end of the prophecy.
Would that also signifies the end of UMNO-led BN government absolutely? Would Najib’s tenure as the PM comes to a premature end?
My perception is that if Najib intends to show that the Prophecy is a myth and nothing but a myth, besides harbouring any hopes of surpassing Tun Mahathir’s 22 years reign as the PM and ensuring BN remains relevant and stays in power till the end of time, then a new order has to emerged.
The 12th GE was without doubt BN's worst performance in Malaysia's general election since independence in 1957. It was indeed a setback.
But as the proverbial saying “Once bitten twice shy”, Najib must ensure that BN not only won, but won handsomely in the next GE.
In history, no matter how many times the Vikings were beaten, they always came back, and in the end all their efforts paid off. Najib must take consolation from that. Like the Viking raiders, Najib has to act fast and swift to ‘raid’ the states BN have lost in the last GE. He had no other choice but to emulate the virtues of this all-time conquering Vikings.  And not less important his Sword of Damocles needs to be drawn always, high and firm ready to strike and pounch at the imminent and ever present peril he will be facing throughout his tenure as the chief executive of the government. In other words, he must not miss the opportunity to ‘destroy’ his political foes completely, because if he does not then he will certainly be destroyed. The fact that PR won in Bukit Gantang and Bkt Selambau in the April 7th by-election with increased majority testified to this. He has to become the VIKING of Malaysia!
