Najib Razak speaks about the 1MDB scandal | 101 East 

This guy brings "as far as I'm concerned" to a whole new level

N - No answer A - Avoid at all cost J - Just ignore I - I wasnt aware B - Buat tak tahu

Who is here after Najib has been imprisoned? This aged like a fine wine 🍷

Walking away from an interview instead of using it as an opportunity to prove his innocence, shows that he is GUILTY!!

. Najib is basically saying, 'As far as I'm concerned, I really didn't know, so I assumed, and I assumed, because honestly, I'm not really concerned.'

This interview is freakin raw..kudos the lady for doing the interview with full commitment and bravery 👍👍👍

Everytime im having bad days, i will watch this interview.

Just watched this for the first time. Impeccable journalism, combating any retort with evidence and proof. No bs. Hope Malaysia gets more freedom of press so we can see journalists question politicians thoroughly, good for rakyat and keeps politicians on their toes. Pity that Al Jazeera cannot operate here now :(

Dato Seri Najib, The father of unity, He united different races to fight against a common enemy... .... Himself

As fas as I’m concerned, Ms Mary you did a freaking fabulous job👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Congratulations to Mary Ann Jolley winning UK Royal Television Society's (RTS) Interview of the Year award! Malaysia will always be proud of your achievements :D

This is a historical interview for any Malaysians. There are millions of us who wanted to ask him these questions.

HE WAS PUT UNDER PRESSURE AND HE CAN'T TAKE IT 😂😂 Good thing Malaysians got rid this PM, cheers from your neighbors!

Congratulations Mary Ann Jolley ! You did it !!!! You did it !!!!!! We watched a few times with a 60-inch TV, the micro-expressions are so entertaining!!! And we had very good laughs!!

I love this interview...watched it 20+ Times...not bored yet though...

Congratulations Al Jazeera! on your winning the interview of the year for this epic interview at theRoyal television award 2019. Well done.

Amazing Najib amazing... Thanks Al Jazeera for showing the uncut version.

Journalist enjoyed her revenge for deported back in history. Well done. hahahaha

This should be an award winning interview.

How i wish Malaysian journalists are as genuine, knowledgeable, and sharp like Mary Ann Jolley when it comes to doing interviews.

"I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know" - Najib 2018

The questions are all Spot on.. Well done.. Don't think Malaysian reporters dare to ask those kind of questions.. Well done Al jazeera

Wow, so proud to Ms. Jolley. One of the greatest and bravest interview i have ever seen!

If he is innocent , this interview would have been his Greatest chance to talk and talk and explain himself clean. There are people who were innocent, had been let out from prison did an interview - they never wish to end the talk , true innocent people must talk and will gladly tell the whole world what went wrong , not walking away , not threaten the journalist to stop . He is already proven guilty with action like that !

Foreign journalist = ask important questions. Malaysian journalist = ask sensational questions.

Why humiliate yourself further when most of the time you said "You Assumed"? A man of your Positions doesn't Assume!

Congratulations Al Jazeera, winning the best interview...

mary ann jolley is very brave lady.. im proud of her

You deported her back then. And now you yourself agreed to do the interview. What were you thinking? This is not RTM or Bicara Rakyat tv3 lol Masuk kandang harimau, expect rimau makan rumput. Sendiri cari pasal 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

She grilled him till he can't stand it anymore

Funniest part is when he insist to leave if Mary Ann keeps harping on 1MDB, and she persuaded him to continue the interview by saying let's talk about your legacy...only for her to mention back how has 1MDB stained his legacy :D

Who is here after this won the interview of the year. Please like

All his body language points to one thing, he is guilty. (Edited: A man's innocence is not based on what he believes but what others see based on evidence.)

Dude you are facing SERIOUS charges and you want her to interview you about the good things you have done for the country? WTF have you done for the country?

I think alot people rewatching this interview after he got jail

Congrats to Mary Ann Jolley for winning the award. I wish you can also conduct the interview in Malay. So those naive or blind supporter of Najib will learnt something from you. That is how not to be bullshit by Najib.😂👍🤗

Can I can convey my total respect for the host of the programme for keeping her calm and professionalism while interviewing someone who's telling lies after lies? Well done for trying your best in getting answers to all those critical questions. We can judge for ourselves if he's really innocent, and I'm sure you can too!

The reporter knew it was *gold* when the interviewee tries to flee!

Should also interview rosmah too... She is the chief of all corruption

Who was brought here again to this video on 24 august 2022?

Today I learned a power word "assume".

I love this reporter ! Good job !

he cant handle it professionally. its like a watching reality drama show

Such a stark contrast between him and Tun Dr. Mahathir in terms of charisma and speech. Tun is not only witty in his language, he's also much more convincing and he knows how to answer interview questions without being hostile to any parties. When he doesn't want to answer a question, he knows how to make it answered without a real answer. And he doesn't walk away in the middle of an interview like a child not getting his candies. Even if he did, I'm pretty sure he won't be indecisive about whether to walk away or not.

Thanks al jazeera! It means a lot for Malaysian

As far as I'm concerned, I dont know how I run my country.

Thanks al-Jazeera for covering this issue and speak out to represent people's voice .Always keep it up💞💞

We dont want heard about your legacy or economic, we want heard your scandals

what do u expect media want to ask? economics? future? of course your affairs. and u are no longer a leader but a suspected criminal with multiple charges. now u know that the truth hurts.

Why didn't Najib invite or allow Aljazera to interview him when he was PM? He's only allowing the interview now because he needs some publicity to defend himself

Thank you Aljazeera Mary Ann. This is TRULY HIGH STANDARD REAL journalism Malaysians never seen before. Superb work!

Legend has it that to this day, he is still saying "as far as I am concerned" every 5 minutes

GOOD JOB...MARY... Welcome to Malaysia...Thanks

what a sweet revenge by the journalist

he just nailed the coffin on himself with this interview. feel bad for him.

Anyone here watching during MCO? 😂

Mary Ann Jolley & Aljazeera, you're all awesome.... Tq.

Unfortunately there are still many people who are blind and deaf....

Every time i been screwed up by human..i search this video..

here after this won the interview of the year.

Your body language, sir, speaks volumes.

Mary Ann .. you're so brave! Your genuine reporter instinct amazes me, I wish you the best in YOUR legacy!💓 Once you prod Najib about Altantuya he lost his patience and when you want to talk about his awesome legacy he finds his chair again. Hope he's brave enough to tell the truth of his scandal. He also didn't arrive at Nothing to Hide public debate with Tun M during his tenure. There's nothing to be afraid of if you're innocent. I really hope he'll come clean one day.

As far as im concerned, watching this on a regular basis feels like a tradition.

Mary Ann, Malaysia LOVES you.👍🙏❤️

you are currently my favourite journalist - for standing up for the Malaysian people. Admire your persistence and bravery.

Thank you Mary Ann Jolly for you courage to do this interview with Najib. It must be intimidating and in tense during and after this is being carried out. Brace through it, the truth will eventually be reveal on all the scandal and allegations that’s on Najib. Do what you do best with this amazing 101 east team.

As far as I’m concerned.. Yana Najwa pasti bangga dengan interview ini..Najib very impressive and amazing in answering Al Jazeera..

Salute to that journalist! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Amazing report from Aljazeera!! Can you also make another report on why Najib does not know anything what was going on after MH370 disappeared for the first four hours?

the more he defend himself the more he sounds so stupxx n unconvincing gosh how pathetic

2022 got recommended again. Watched the entire thing again, worth it, better than Netflix.

He said, he has nothing to do with Altantuya but when the reporter, Mary Ann was doing a journalist report on Altantuya in Malaysia, he deported her. That really speaks volume of his evil intention.

Kudos Mary Ann! Brilliant brilliant job!!

His face turned pink when she stirred about Jho Low 😂

His expressions in between while hes being nailed each time 😂 priceless

we learn a new word.. "as far as i concern"

Mom : Did you eat the chocolate in the fridge? 5 Years Old Son : No! Mom : Why your lips covering with chocolate? 5 Years Old Son : I don't know! Mom : Who eat it, then? 5 Years Old Son : Lassie(Dog) ate it. Am I seeing that on this Al Jazeera video? Thank you Mary Ann, you are a very brave lady. Keep it up! 🙏

"I assumed everything would be fine" Working in an entry-level job, you learn that you can't "assume everything would be fine", which is rather basic. Additionally, where was the due diligence? Loved how entertaining it was when Mary Ann Jolley trolled Najib, Mary: "Let's talk about your legacy" Najib: "OK, let's talk about my legacy" Mary: "What do you consider to be your legacy as Prime Minister of Malaysia?" Najib: I have steered the progress of this country. I'm very proud of my achievement, my government's achievement. First of all, in terms of the stewardship of the economy. For 6 years, we exceeded the growth of the 4 so-called Asian Tigers, Korea, Taiwan, Japan and Singapore. I'm proud of the achievements that I've achieved. Mary: How do you feel about the fact that the 1MDB scandal has stained that legacy to a certain extent?" LOL

what you assume this is donation..what kind of a person run a country based in assumption

Worldwide shame. Hats off to the journalist.

Thank you Mary Ann and Al Jazeera on behalf of all Malaysians for this interview and for all of your effort to investigate and lay out the facts. MaryAnn did an exceptional job drilling our ex-PM, the public deserves to know all his crimes.

U can walkout from aljazeera but u cant escape the rule of law in d malaysian court & also the rule of law by GOD. Disgraceful.

Mary Ann Jolly 👍👍👍 great job.from Malaysia.

this interview would be more fun with a lie detector test

This interview must go viral in Malaysia, with Malay subtitle. Let the Malaysian knows that he is “ REALLY” innocent.

The woman who is not even Malaysian is so furious of what he answered cause the only answer that he provided is "at that time i don't know". So from what i know he said is, if someone rob a bank and he give back the bank money he is innocent. And when police ask why you rob a bank just answer I DON'T KNOW and you will not get caught.

historic interview

Oh my God, Mr. Najib! Such attitude!

Thank you, Mary Ann for representing Malaysians in asking the questions and allegations. Although no clear answer was given, the body language has given us a clearer indication.

Remember when his supporters shamed Wan Azizah for her “ failed “ interview with AJ back in 2015? Kak Wan sat through the interview, she didn’t lose her cool or simply left. Najib did. I think I’ve said enough

Najib talks about presents from dignitaries. Yes, Dr M also got gifts from foreign dignitaries. The gifts are on display in Langkawi. Gifts like cutlery... certainly no pink diamonds costing millions.

She is so persistent n not scared of him

That body language when it's about altantuya. Dangggg

Just simply walked away after he couldn't lie for another lie.

17:06 I love her reaction. " Well he always been a movie-buff". Priceless!

Best interview ever

Najib walking out is indeed rude. To prove his innocence, he should have answered the questions.

He got no lawyer to back him up.... He had cracked...hahahahah

This interview was going to be a next level!! What a nice presentation voice that girl!

Please do investigative journalism (just like this) in Kazakhstan.
