As each day passes and Najib addresses anyone who is prepared to listen to his attempts at economic sabotage the public wonders more and more why he is allowed to remain on bail and doing his best to damage the country?

His latest outpourings about Petronas are a part of a campaign, pathetic but potentially dangerous, to hurt Malaysia’s economy.

It is time and past time for the government to ask for the revocation of his bail on the ground that he is trying to sabotage the national economy and that he be remanded in custody until his trials. It is impossible to estimate accurately how much damage his criminal activities have inflicted on the national economy but there is no reason or sense in allowing him to go on trying to do so.
