Be wary of IS, Najib cautions demonstrators

Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak has urged the people not to take actions out of the legal boundaries and should use the correct channels to raise any differing views.

He said as a nation which practises constitutional democracy, actions such as organising street demonsrations were wrong.

“If we were to demonstrate... and suddenly there are disruptions by IS terrorists, what will happen? There will be anarchy,” he said.

Najib said this at a dinner in conjunction with the 2016 Students Parliamentary Session, at the Putra World Trade Centre in Kuala Lumpur last night.

Also present were Higher Education Minister Idris Jusoh, Malaysian Former Elected Representatives Council (Mubarak) president Abdul Aziz Rahman and Universiti Islam Antarabangsa Malaysia president Rais Yatim.

Najib stressed that those who did not agree with the government on certain issues should not play politics of hatred and should instead offer constructive alternatives to the government.

Najib, who is also Finance Minister, also pointed out that the government had aided the people tremendously in the facing the cost of living, education, health and pilgrimage.

The government in power now, he said, was a responsible government and was always concerned about the people's needs and strengthening the nation’s economy in the long run.
