Book review: Nazir Razak’s candid look at dad, career and country – P. Gunasegaram - superadmin - 11-08-2021 WRITING a book linking the work of your father to your own values and career and what you think the future path your country should take is a rather tall order, especially when your father is one of the nation’s founding fathers, its first deputy prime minister and its second prime minister. And when you were a mere nine years old when your dad died. Well, that’s exactly what Datuk Seri Nazir Razak, a well-known corporate icon in Malaysia and the youngest son of Tun Abdul Razak Hussein, has succeeded in doing with his book, What’s In a Name, which is available for sale at bookshops today at RM89.95. It’s a bold, brave and, most of all, admirable effort considering the pitfalls and potholes such a path would come with, and the amount of disagreement and controversy that such an undertaking would generate even in the best of times due to its complexity. - More -
