Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak mounted a major show of force today amid claims of disquiet within Felda settlements.

Tens of thousands of Felda settlers descended on Putrajaya since morning to occupy canopies set up on Persiaran Perdana to listen to the prime minister's speech.

In their respective speeches, Najib said there were 25,000 people present, while Felda chairperson Shahrir Samad quoted a figure of 20,000.
