 Datuk Hussein Onn, the Prime Minister of Malaysia, is now hailed as a political phenomenon in the Asean region - as someone who has given a new dimension to the art of political democracy. Since becoming Prime Minister, Datuk Hussein has made critical decisions compared to other leaders before him. By doing so he has shown that he is motivated by the common good and the courage to defend his position. Unlike his predecessors, Hussein Onn avoided publicity, preferring to quietly convince his opponents of his views. This book is an introduction to the story of a lawyer who in less than a century in politics has become a leading politician in Malaysia. J. VICTOR MORAIS has been involved in editing and publishing newspapers and books for the past 35 years. His journalism career began with the Malaya Tribune, where he became the Editor-in-Chief, and went on to become the editor of the Daily News, in Ipoh.
