Make 2018 a year of success – Najib

KUALA LUMPUR: Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak intends to make 2018 as the year of success and impressive result for Malaysia.

Najib said he wanted the nation and government to continue to be strong, stable and progressive in all aspects and major sectors, whether in terms of the economy, politics, religion, education, culture and social, which would lead to a spillover in terms of prosperity and welfare of the people.

“Together we spread the good things, attain delivery and the noble efforts which were increasingly carried out by the government for the benefit of the people, despite warding off the ‘war of perception’, propaganda and false accusations hurled by irresponsible groups in the social media.

“Hopefully, the year 2018 will bring about more successes and impressive outcome for Malaysia. Let us pray for progress for Malaysia, and blessings for the people and country under the protection of Allah SWT eternally. Insya-Allah,” he said in his latest posting on his blog, www. najibrazak.com, yesterday.

Najib said this showed that “we are a government that continues to bring about transformation, to bring a definite aspiration for the future of the people and nation” and to remind the people not to allow the nation to go back to the archaic period which was autocratic.

He explained that the government of today was one that had a proven track record, vision and mission that was very clear and forward thinking and followed by inclusive and comprehensive planning.

“In fact, the World Bank reported that ‘Malaysia’s economy expanded from a strong position’ and we expect a healthy growth for the year 2018 and a much reduced deficit when we continue to adopt all necessary measures to develop the country and ensure the security, welfare and happiness of the people of Malaysia.”
