Deputy Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak’s reaction to recent revelations about the sale of Malaysia Airlines (MAS) shares is pathetic, as he attempts to wash his hands and pretend to be clean.

It is shocking that he and other ministers are suddenly claiming ignorance of the previous administration’s actions and decisions. This is a serious failing.

Cabinet ministers are part of the Executive. With this comes the duty and responsibility of governing the country. They cannot claim ignorance or shift the blame to a previous prime minister or cabinet member when old scandals resurface, as is happening.

	Really no knowledge?
