PUTRAJAYA: Malaysia almost lost a huge investment from Saudi Aramco due to the unpatriotic attitude of certain people who channelled incorrect information on Malaysia to the Saudi Arabian oil company, said Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak.

Najib, who is also Finance Minister, said Saudi Aramco was initially reluctant to invest in Malaysia after having being fed information that Malaysia had purportedly been placed in the politically risky category.
