Datuk Seri Mohd Najib Tun Razak on Monday reiterated Malaysia's committment towards being a leading global voice for Islam and its followers.

In his first post of the year on his blog najibrazak.com, the Prime Minister said this was clearly evident in Malaysia's strong stand against the United States' recognition of Jerusalem as Israel's Capital City, as well as the Nation's stand against the atrocities on the Rohingya in Myanmar.

In his blog, Datuk Seri Najib said Muslims in Malaysia, as well as worldwide, should unite to end the suffering and oppression against their brothers in the two countries.

The Prime Minister said throughout 2017, Malaysia continued to be blessed by Allah, remained prosperous, peaceful and harmonious, as well as continued to be a model Islamic country that was influential and vocal in defending Islam and Muslims worldwide.

On the Jerusalem issue, he said Malaysia strongly condemned and would never agree with efforts by the United States to recognise it as the capital of Israel.

He said the atrocities against the Rohingya were also episodes that deeply affected the Muslims, thus Malaysia had played its role as vocal critics in raising the issues not just on Asean platform, but also globally.

He said Malaysia continued to provide aid to ease the suffering of the Rohingya ethnic, apart from opening its doors for them to share the peace and stability enjoyed by Malaysians in the country, as well as sending aid to the Rohingya refugees  in Bangladesh and Myanmar.

He said that in February, through Non-Governmental Organisation (NGO) Yayasan Ikhlas, M172,500 in financial aid was delivered via a Bangladeshi NGO to Rohingya refugees at the Kutupalog and Balukhali Camps in Bangladesh.

The Malaysian Consultative Council of Islamic Organisation (MAPIM) and other Islamic NGO''s from Malaysia had also sent aid in the form of food and medicine worth RM200,000 to over 140,000 Rohingya refugees in Bangladesh.
