Those who claim Felda is Bankrupt are traitors, says Najib


PUTRAJAYA - Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak regards those who alleged that Felda was bankrupt as traitors to the nation as they were prepared to insult an institution that has served the people well.

The prime minister said Felda was a successful institution that had changed the country's socio-economic landscape, besides having a lot of cash savings.

"Two or three days ago, I had a meeting with the Felda management and I looked at the Felda accounts. If today we liquidate all the Felda shares listed on Bursa Malaysia, Felda can earn as much as RM4.3 billion.

"Who says Felda is bankrupt? There's no such thing. The management said not to mention it (the amount), but Felda has a lot of money in its savings...(and) it's safe," he said when closing the Karnival Ikatan Hati Warga Felda (Iktiraf) 2010, here, Sunday.

Also present were Domestic Trade, Cooperatives and Consumerism Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob, Deputy Minister in the Prime Minister's Department Datuk Ahmad Maslan and Felda chairman Tan Sri Dr Mohd Yusof Noor.

Najib said those who alleged that Felda was bankrupt had made the second biggest lie after the claim to take over the federal government on Sept 16, 2008.

Hence, he said, it was incumbent on the people including the Felda fraternity to defend the ruling government in Putrajaya.

While regarding the detractors as callous, as they were prepared to insult Felda and tarnish its image, Najib said they were now afraid to attack Felda as it had been proven that what they claimed was untrue.

"That is why those who said Felda was bankrupt are now shaking at their knees. We have won two cases in court and there are four more cases pending.

"We are on the right side. Today, they dare not 'crow' anymore. We challenge them that if they do, we will sue," he said.
