Hedging for the future
Probably ten-out-of-ten people who follow Malaysian politics closely would tell you that Abdul Razak Baginda, executive director of the Malaysian Strategic Research Centre, is a loyalist and strategist to the DPM since the time Najib Razak was the Education Minister right through the days of Defence Minister .
The manner The NST swiftly featured Razak Baginda on Page 4 yesterday, my political pundit friends sensed The NST editors are starting to shift the chips and hedge for their future.
Was it because they, too, have read Najib's body language on St Valentine's Day?

Jeff,
Just emailed you an article about "Tussle between smelter rights put Abdullah to the test".
It is well-connected Tan Sri Syed Moktar VS Mr. Abdul Taib's Cahaya Mata to build a US$1.2 billion aluminium smelter.
Behind them are China's Luneng Group, Australia BHP. Alcoa of US, Rio Tinto of Australia.
Though the later groups are giant in this business with better deal, experience and capital, guess who will win?
