KUALA LUMPUR: Instead of delivering a speech as he usually does at public events, Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak broke from the norm when he read out a poem to recount his long journey in public service.

The Prime Minister was attending the launch of a book on his four decades in politics, which was officiated by his predecessor Tun Abdullah Ahmad Badawi.
