Perhaps, once out of Jalan Riong, the 111-year old Malay Mail may get a new lease of life. Nevermind if it was "re-invented" just last year.

S. Jayasankaran, who wrote the story for SPH-owned Straits Times, said there are people who think that The Malay Mail can be resurrected despite the accumulated losses. And the Daim's Boy is not alone.

But I was told, this time around, the Daim's Boy will team up with a former Anwar's Boy from Nexnews to take over Malay Mail.
