The thousands of guests at the Aidilfitri open house of the Prime Minister and Cabinet Ministers at Seri Perdana reflect the people's support for Datuk Seri Najib Razak, said Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.

He said more people had attended the open house this year compared to the previous years.

"This reflects good response ... also, this time, many people came not only from Putrajaya but also other places like Negeri Sembilan, Perak and Johor.

"This goes to show that they want to meet the Prime Minister. They get a sense of reassurance when they shake hands with the Prime Minister," he said to reporters when approached at the event.

The open house was held from 9 am to 4 pm.
