The 1MDB debacles are now seemingly all set to rip a nation apart.

The latest twist which saw the Umno Youth of Najib Abdul Razak lodging a police report against former Bank Negara governor Zeti Akhtar Aziz, outgoing Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) chief Abu Kasim Mohamed and ex-attorney-general Abdul Gani Patail, alleging the trio of sabotaging Najib’s administration, is in all likelihood going to be one of the many expected and unexpected triggers that will plunge the nation into a deeper darkness.

It is indeed most gripping to see Najib determined to take the nation through any battle and dirt to stay in power.

The rakyat are all wound up all across the nation crying desperately for a solution. But that seems like the most elusive hope as their cries out of desperation even to the royalties of Malaysia are not hearing a whisper.

Meanwhile, every instrument is being deployed to fight a political survival battle in the wake of this scourge of billions of ringgit hatched out of 1MDB.

How long more will Malaysians have to cling to upon hope after hope for a solution is something that has dragged on since 2009.

Despite so many former leaders of this once progressive nation mending their seams and galvanising for some solutions, it seems that the battle front of a Bugis warrior is only hardening up as the clock ticks away.

Indeed if Najib is certain and if all his tropes are so sure about the sanctity of 1MDB, what is taking them so long to convince the world?

Now that the US Department of Justice is taking the bull by the horns with a civil suit that has criminal elements embedded, are we to say that even the American justice system and the Federal Bureau of Investigation are so naïve as to be falling for a plot hatched by the three chieftains of Malaysia’s institutions whom the Umno Youth have now sought police help to pin?

At this rate, all bona fide investors will either flee of halt their investment plans. Can Malaysia afford a fissured economy?

At this rate the Malay population is definitely going to be permanently split, leaving no gainers.

At this rate Malaysians who rode many economic storms in the past decades in all likelihood must brace themselves to plunge deep into the ravine of desperate times and desperate measure as the Bugis warrior and his loyal oarsmen move into confrontational battle mode.

Common sense dictates that nation interest, citizens well being and protecting the pillars of good governance and democracy must take precedence over and above any person or political party wanting to stay in power by all means.

Ultimately, as the political frameworks fail with each passing day, the constitutional monarchy of Malaysia must rise before the nation plunges into darkness.
