“When Prime Ministers Meant Something”

“When Prime Ministers Meant Something”

A personal tribute by journalist Ashwin Kumar to Tun Abdullah Ahmad Badawi — Malaysia’s last true statesman.

From the pride of sharing a school with Pak Lah to witnessing his quiet strength in a noisy political world, Ashwin reflects on what real leadership once looked like: dignified, humble and deeply human.

“Even when I was the one supposed to ask the questions, he made time to ask about me.”

Tune in for a reminder of the kind of Prime Minister we used to respect — and the kind of decency we desperately miss.
