Synopsis
When Malaysia's sixth prime minister Najib Razak was sentenced to twelve years in prison and fined RM 210 million for stealing billions from the 1MDB state investment fund he had himself set up, it exposed a chain of events that began decades ago, and which continues to reverberate economically, financially and politically, bleeding the treasury and inflicting immeasurable pain on taxpayers for generations to come. Malaysian journalist Leslie Lopez's first book, The Siege Within, delves into the writer's own archives of previously unpublished material to go back in time and show exactly how it was possible for a Malaysian prime minister to envisage his treacherous crime, and then to execute the dastardly deed. From its most 'innocent' beginning in a north Malaysian state, Lopez charts how Najib and his warlords set up the investment fund for the sole purpose of stealing from it. Lopez's literary debut goes on to show how 1MDB is not just about Najib. The book brings into sharp relief the Machiavellian schemes of a prime minister who sat at the top for more than two decades, and came back from retirement to become PM again in 2022, at the age of ninety-two. The Siege Within paints Mahathir Mohamed as the chief architect of a political system that paved the way for a criminal such as Najib to lie, cheat and steal his way to power, a system which then protected him from scrutiny and prosecution. One-time central bank governor Zeti Aziz, and the extent of her relationship with the man who delivered billions to Najib on a silver platter, Low Taek Jho, come under a forensic spotlight as Lopez exposes the shocking series of events that culminated in the monstrous enormity of Najib's deeds. It also depicts how the earth shook for the main players-in Malaysia, Australia, Singapore, the US and Middle Eastern states-once news broke of the biggest case of corruption in world history. The Siege Within is the untold story behind the political crime that continues to make world headlines, and why a nation so full of promise has been brought to its knees., A remarkable thriller crafted out of politics and high finance, this knockout expose is all the more shocking for the ring of truth behind every act, The 1 Malaysia Development Bhd (lMDB) scandal has been framed in many ways by state agencies, lawyers, judges, journalists, and bloggers. But for all that has been said and written about a national debacle like no other in world history, no one has been able to capture and recreate the real drama of the financial swindle that changed Malaysian politics forever. Until now. In The Siege Within, award-winning news sleuth Leslie Lopez offers a new portrait of this epic from start to finish in a comprehensive single-volume account. By seamlessly weaving history, politics, and intrigue, bringing nearly four decades of reporting to bear on The Siege Within, Lopez offers a narrative of epic proportions, revealing to the reader many previously undisclosed but explosive slices and moments of contemporary Malaysia before meticulously dissecting the 1MDB scandal with vivid storytelling that unravels a complex financial fiasco while presenting the big picture. The narrative takes the reader through a series of events over the last three decades, previously viewed as separate but which are in fact, as only Lopez may show, unifying beneath the surface. Lopez charts a journey through history, leading to the incorporation of 1MDB, which in itself was riddled with serious wrongdoing and made possible with the connivance of a prime minister called Najib Razak, his government, regulators, bankers, and lawyers.
