Rosmah Mansor is unperturbed by the many wild allegations hurled against her by hostile parties.

She said, as the prime minister's wife, she was more focused in her work to help the people get a better life and future.

NONE “I don’t have time to entertain them,” she told the Malaysian media at a press conference here today, when asked about how she felt about the negative allegations.

Rosmah said she, and even her husband, Najib Razak, were not distracted or very particular by the allegations as they were focused in their work.

Both Rosmah and Najib have been dogged by the on-going controversy involving the murder of Mongolian national Altantuya Shaariibuu three years ago.

More recently, both were accused of using a family member to intimate private investigator P Balasubramaniam to alter his statutory declaration which alleged that Najib has close ties with the murdered woman.

Najib had last week dismissed the allegations that his younger brother Mohamed Nazim had coerced Balasubramaniam to hush up as "frivolous" .

Other first ladies were targets too

According to Rosmah, she had met several foreign first ladies where they told her that they too, had become the target of opposing political parties.

“So, this issue is a universal culture, coming from people who are not happy with the government,” said Rosmah, adding that such allegations would be more blatant when the country was nearing an election.

Rosmah was in Singapore to attend the Asean Women Leaders Forum where she gave a keynote address on women leadership in the new era.
