najib bodoh rakyat atau najib memang bodoh?

PUTRAJAYA: The Barisan Nasional Backbenchers’ Club (BBC) can go on trips any time it wants as it was bearing all expenses and they were for a good cause, said Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak.

He said these trips were productive and it was perfectly all right to go on the trip to Taiwan.

“The trip (to Taiwan is not borne by the Government, it is by the BBC; as long as it is something productive, there is nothing wrong with having such a trip,” he told reporters after opening a conference on Islamic Smart Economy here on Tuesday.

“What is more immoral is trying to buy them over. It is subverting the principles of Parliamentary democracy,” he said, adding that the members of the BBC were elected on the Barisan ticket and they should remain Barisan supporters.

Najib however claimed he was not making a link between the threats of a takeover by PKR advisor Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim with the BBC members’ trip to Taiwan to study agriculture techniques.
