KUALA LUMPUR: Umno president Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak (pic) says he will attend Sunday’s Rohingya solidarity rally despite protests from the Myanmar government.

In his winding up speech at the Umno General Assembly at the Putra World Trade Centre (PWTC) on Saturday, Najib said that he would not heed the call of Myanmar's deputy director general of the President’s Office, U Zaw Htay, for Malaysia to keep out of the Rohingya issue.
