Speaking up against extremism

An interview with CIMB Group Holdings Bhd chairman Datuk Seri Nazir Razak.

Those who exploit sensitive issues to incite anger and hatred should be taken to task by the authorities without fear or favour, says corporate captain Datuk Seri Nazir Razak.

HE’S a top corporate leader and runs one of the biggest investment banks in the region. But CIMB Group Holdings Bhd chairman Datuk Seri Nazir Razak does not live in an ivory tower. Although he is also the brother of the Prime Minister, he knows what the ordinary folk want – a peaceful and thriving nation. For that, Nazir knows moderation is the answer. It’s a stance that he has held for many years.
