Meanwhile, in a live chat session later, Najib reiterated that he wanted to continue his late father's legacy to continue to develop the country and drive Malaysia to be among the top 20 nations in the world.

Najib, who is also the Finance Minister, said his late father, Tun Abdul Razak Hussein, who was Malaysia's second prime minister, inspired him most to further develop Malaysia.

"My late father wanted to modernise Malaysia and develop rural areas beside bringing in new industries to the country.

"Unfortunately, he didn't live longer when he died at the age of 54. Now, God bless me, with the opportunity. I want to play the ultimate role to bring Malaysia to be in the top 20 nations.

"I am confident with the support of the people, God willing, we will," he said.

Earlier yesterday, Najib had officiated the groundbreaking ceremony of the KLIA Aeropolis DFTZ Park at Sepang International Circuit.
