Penang's Turn To Revoke State Title to Najib Razak

Penang has followed in the footsteps of Selangor by revoking a title previously bestowed on former prime minister Najib Razak (right) on Thursday, after he started serving a prison sentence for corruption last month. 

According to acting Penang state secretary Mohd Zakuan Zakaria, Penang Governor Ahmad Fuzi Abdul Razak agreed for the state government to cancel and repeal the Darjah Utama Pangkuan Negeri (DUPN) award Najib received in 2009 – and which carries the honorific Datuk Seri Utama – in light of his conviction in the SRC International case.


Celtic on Wednesday, endured an exasperating night in Warsaw, Poland as a resolute Shakhtar Donetsk side held them in a Champions League draw. 

A deflected Reo Hatate effort had the dominant Scots deservedly ahead after just 10 minutes. But the Ukrainian side levelled the tie in the twenty-ninth minute. 

Still Celtic dictated most of the play in the second half – and yet, frustratingly, their dominance wasn’t converted into goals. 

One point from two tough games is far from a disaster. But it's crucial Celtic convert their dominant periods in these games into goals if they are to realize aspirations of knockout Champions League football.

Anyway, their tough start continues with an away match against Bundesliga side RB Leipzig on October 05. But before that, they will take on St Mirren on Sunday in a bid to keep up their 100% Scottish Premiership start.
