Najib’s pardon will not feature in state polls, say analysts

NAJIB Razak’s application for a royal pardon will not be an election talking point for any parties in the forthcoming state elections, analysts said.

They said that Perikatan Nasional (PN) would not stand to gain by highlighting the issue, and neither would Pakatan Harapan (PH) and Barisan Nasional (BN) be on the back foot.
