Umno Youth has conferred an award to jailed former party president Najib Razak as a token of appreciation for “his services and contribution” to Malaysia.
The award is given yearly in conjunction with the Umno annual general assembly, which is ongoing until Saturday. “Bossku, he served the people,” he said in his speech, referring to Najib’s moniker which means “my boss” in English. “He also introduced many policies that helped youths.” The two sons were in tears when they received the award. Najib is serving a 12-year prison sentence for misappropriating RM42 million from SRC International, a former subsidiary of 1MDB.
