PETALING JAYA: Pakatan Harapan today reminded Najib Razak that his father, Abdul Razak Hussein, the country’s second prime minister, had retained an MCA president as finance minister after he had questioned Lim Guan Eng’s appointment to the post.

The statement was signed by PH secretariat chief Saifuddin Abdullah, PKR secretary-general Saifuddin Nasution and his counterpart from PPBM, Marzuki Yahya, Amanah deputy secretary-general Abang Ahmad Kerdee; and DAP national organising secretary Loke Siew Fook. “Will he be able to take care of Malay dignity? He wouldn’t know about the Malay agenda,” the former prime minister was heard saying.

They went on to accuse Najib of playing the race card by singling out Lim “only because he was Chinese”.
