KUALA LUMPUR – Trick Lama returns with another compelling episode, this time featuring former Malaysian ambassador to the US Datuk Seri Mohamed Nazri Abdul Aziz. With a political career spanning over four decades, Nazri has been a significant figure in Malaysia’s political landscape. 

In this episode, Nazri reflects on his recent tenure as Malaysia’s ambassador, a role he held from February 2023 to February 2025. He also addresses the controversy surrounding a viral MAGA photo, viewing it as a strategic move to elevate Malaysia’s profile on the global stage. 

Nazri also discusses his loyalty to the US president’s office in his role as ambassador, his unconventional yet effective diplomatic strategies, and his commitment to supporting Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim in the lead-up to the 16th general election. 

As he contemplates his return to the political arena, Nazri shares insights into why his comeback could be the catalyst for renewed vigour in Malaysian politics.
