PETALING JAYA: As the fate of 11 Malaysians trapped in Pyongyang hangs in the balance following North Korea’s move to bar them from leaving the reclusive country, Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak cut short his trip to Jakarta, and flew home to chair an emergency meeting of the National Security Council.

This is the first time Najib has chaired an NSC emergency meeting since he became Prime Minister in 2009.
