- W368430812 abstract "Abdullah bin Haji Ahmad Badawi, or more popularly known by hisnickname Pak Lah, has secured his place in Malaysian political historyas the country’s fifth prime minister. Known for his affability, he waswelcomed into office in 2003 after the 22 year iron-fist tenure of hispredecessor Dr. Mahathir Mohamed. However, five years later he becamethe country’s only prime minister who was forced to resign even afterwinning a general election. Unlike many other countries, a mere victory inMalaysia’s polls by the ruling National Front coalition or Barisan Nasional(BN) is not seen as ‘good enough’. In Malaysian politics, the ruling partyjudges its victory by whether or not, it gets the two-thirds majority inparliament. Abdullah failed to reach this marker in the 2008 generalelection. Ironically, in 2004, Abdullah’s BN had won by a landslide, taking198 of 219 seats. In percentage terms, this translated into 90 percent ofthe seats in parliament and was the largest victory ever for the governingcoalition. Although he was not expected to perform at the same level in2008, it was not expected that the BN would lose its two-thirds majority.In 2008, the BN won the general election by 58 seats, or 63 percent of theseats. Within a year of the results, Abdullah was forced to retire andhand over the reigns of the party and government to his deputy NajibTun Razak. He stepped down from office on 1 April 2009, after 1,979 daysin office." @default.
