COMMENT There are no surprises that cracks have started to appear in the relationship between Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak and his deputy, Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.

Or, at least, this is my own observations. Take it with your fingers crossed as you read on as it may open your eyes to some new development.

As political observers, we like to comment on what we see. As soon as we can pry open what appears to be an ongoing feud between the two top leaders, we want to be the first to tell the story just like the husband who should be walking in front of his wife, especially when good protocols are to be observed.
