KUALA LUMPUR, June 20 — Datuk Seri Najib Razak appeared to go on a stump for the Barisan Nasional (BN) government today, warning the Chinese business community here that their assets and wealth may “evaporate” unless there is “political certainty and stability”.

The prime minister appealed to the community to “work together” with the government to ensure such stability is maintained, saying that lessons could be learned from the current euro zone crisis, the US economic slowdown, and events in North Africa.
