Prime Minister Najib Razak said today Malaysians actually have too much food on their table.

"Actually in Malaysia, we have too much food. We are eating too much," Najib said in his speech at the monthly Prime Minister’s Office gathering in Putrajaya today.

"We must address the people’s wants, as they are just concerned about food on their table.

"But I mean this as a whole: affordable housing, cost of living, jobs, services from the government and others," he clarified.

Najib said the government must now focus on gaining back the trust of the people.

"What they call deficit of trust, this is our job to recover and increase the people's confidence," he said.

Social media dissed again

He also lamented about the social media, saying that they must figure out how to deal with it.

"The paradigms of social media is different. This is a challenge where the perception is always stronger than reality.

“As a team, we should overcome it," he said.

Yesterday, Najib had said in a speech in Kuala Kubu Baru that he was a victim of "trial by social media" .

He then hinted that there will be changes to laws regulating the Internet.
