About Najib Razak

Najib Razak (born July 23, 1953) is a Malaysian politician who served as the sixth Prime Minister of Malaysia from 2009 until 2018. During his tenure, he was implicated in the misappropriation of billions of dollars from the state investment fund, 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB). This led to numerous charges of corruption and money laundering against him. The scandal severely damaged Malaysia's international reputation and played a key role in Najib's electoral defeat in 2018. In 2020, he was convicted on several charges related to the scandal.

Additional quotes by Najib Razak

I wanted to come and see for myself what problem you have and if Robert Lau wins the seat, you will all see a new beginning. I want to make a deal with you. Can we have an understanding? The understanding is quite simple. I help you, you help me. Do we have a deal or not? We do! You want the RM5 million, I want Robert Lau to win. If Robert Lau becomes the MP on Sunday (16 May 2010), on Monday I’ll ask the cheque to be prepared.

Not as often I'd like to (exercise). I like to eat. My problem is I love food. Like most Malaysians. But I have to control (my eating). For example, I don't eat rice, but quinoa. My son introduced me to quinoa, a food from Peru. It is protein-based, so it has less carbohydrates and less sugar content, so it is better than rice.
