PKR leaders shot back at embattled Prime Minister Najib Razak,
accusing him of hiding behind his wife and not facing up directly to
corruption allegations raised against his administration and his family.
"Yes, it is obvious Najib is still feeling very sensitive over the Palestinian boo-boo. He made a fool of himself on the international stage and this became worse when the Malaysian mainstream media tried to cover up. They should not go to the opposite extreme by declaring the visit hugely successful and Najib the new darling of the global community when in reality, it was the reverse," PKR vice president Tian Chua told Malaysia Chronicle.
“Even my Gaza trip was belittled. They are not constructive,” Najib had charged during his keynote address at the Women as the Nation’s Transformation Drive seminar.

"It is sad to see that in one of the rare times that Najib actually
confronts the issue of his wife, it is like he is trying to pre-empt
criticism against the possibility that further graft may be involved in
giving Permata more spending money and power with a new deal. Yet when
some one shows documentary evidence that the corruption accusations
raised against him and Rosmah are substantial enough to warrant a
probe, he quickly shuts up. This is not only cowardly but unmanly," PKR
vice president Tian Chua told Malaysia Chronicle.
Tian, the MP for Batu, was responding to a speech Najib made on Tuesday morning, where the latter suggested that children's welfare group Permata co-operates with the National Council of Women’s Organisations to set up more childcare centres in light of increased female participation in the workforce. His wife scandal-tainted wife Rosmah Mansor is the Permata patron.
“Forget that my wife that’s involved. Work with Permata as it is a programme that is committed to early education. But we know the opposition would belittle the idea if Permata is involved. The opposition, they are not constructive. They only know how to belittle everything,” Najib said.
Still blushing from the Palestinian boo-boo
It was also clear that Najib, who was embarrassed during his recent
trip to the Middle East, had yet to recover his composure. In his
speech, Najib again blamed the Malaysian Opposition led by Anwar Ibrahim
for his woes.Tian, the MP for Batu, was responding to a speech Najib made on Tuesday morning, where the latter suggested that children's welfare group Permata co-operates with the National Council of Women’s Organisations to set up more childcare centres in light of increased female participation in the workforce.
