"The perception has clouded our minds and because of that, efforts and initiatives that bring benefits to the people has now become something wrong," he said at the presentation of offer letters to 1,200 imam and chairmen of village security and development committees under the Prime Minister-1MDB Foundation haj sponsorship programme.

Najib said when there was attack on 1MDB, it looked as if 1MDB had not contributed at all.

"**Why do we look at 1MDB as if it is bad. 1MDB has done a lot and its initiatives and efforts had benefitted many**," he said. Najib added that when the mind was clouded by perception, the people were not interested anymore in finding the truth.

"This is when we have a situation where one is already seen guilty on the social media before being proven innocent. We are no longer interested in verifying things on social media," he said.

He said the sale of a piece of land at the Tun Razak Exchange (TRX) involving Lembaga Tabung Haji, which had been manipulated by certain quarters, was an example of how the people were easily influenced by negative perception.

Najib said the sale was a good business deal due to the potential value of the land.

"However, certain quarters had painted the deal as if it was to save 1MDB and because of the perception, everyone was against it and we are seen as guilty," he said.
