Najib to Pua: Come after me, not Foon Yew school
PETALING JAYA: Najib Razak has accused a DAP leader of “intimidation politics” by criticising a top Chinese school for allowing the former prime minister to visit the school and deliver a talk last week.
Najib said Tony Pua’s criticism of Foon Yew High School was “absolutely unbecoming” and reflected a malicious need to lambast a prestigious school. The attack was nothing more than an election ploy, he said.
“If you have a problem with me, come after me. Don’t go after school directors who have done a good job,” Najib said in a Facebook post tonight.
He questioned what gave Pua the right to judge the integrity of the board, which had turned the high school into Malaysia’s largest Chinese independent education institution with a 71-year history.
Pua is MP for Damansara and national publicity secretary of DAP.
Earlier today, he criticised the school board for allowing Najib to give a talk, saying it had “set the worst possible example for our children” by inviting a world-renowned kleptocrat.
Pua had also demanded that the school governors be sacked for their “complete lack of integrity”.
