Badawi plans to quit
KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 6: Malaysian Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi, who is under intense pressure to quit, said he will announce by Wednesday whether he will step down in March.
Abdullah had earlier suggested he may not seek re-election as leader of the ruling party, the UMNO, in internal polls to be held in March.
The prime minister said his plan would be revealed in time for a high-level meeting Wednesday of the Barisan Nasional coalition, which UMNO leads.—AFP
