The opposition's criticisms of BN's effort to draw investments from China made things worse for the Chinese business community, said Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak.

Speaking at the 60th-anniversary dinner of Federation of Hokkien Associations of Malaysia (FHAM) in Serdang today, Najib said foreign investments must be encouraged because it was good for the economy.

"The member of the opposition are attacking us because we bring in Chinese investment.

"That's a very good reason for all of us not to support the opposition because they are not telling us what's good for Malaysia and Chinese community," he said.
