Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak has urged BN component parties to stand up to "lies" from the opposition, especially in social media.

He said that BN is a constant victim of "half-truths" splashed on the internet, and it cannot just rely on the electorate to discern truth from falsehoods.

"BN has constantly been manipulated through the social media, with so many half-truths.

"In the last election, voters were duped by the opposition that BN secretly brought in 40,000 Bangladeshi as voters.

"This (secretly bringing in 40,000 Bangladeshi as voters) is an outright lie and I cannot believe many swallowed (believed) it," he was quoted by Bernama as saying.

Speaking at the LDP general assembly in Kota Kinabalu, Najib, who is also BN chairperson urged voters to look beyond hating BN and see the achievements of the BN-led government.

"Malaysia is among the best economies in Asean in the past nine months and recently, Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation leaders told me that they think Malaysia is an up-and-coming nation, and that gives credit to BN," he said.

He also urged all BN parties to reinvigorate themselves in preparation of the 14th general election.
