Najib is Singapore, Jho Low proxy, says Dr Mahathir
(TMI) – In yet another salvo at Datuk Seri Najib Razak, Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad accused the embattled prime minister of being the “proxy” of Singapore and businessman Low Teck Jho.
“Najib has his own advisers, including three Brits. He paid foreign consultants to advise him on government matters. He also asked Singapore whether he should build the bridge or the high-speed train. When Singapore said no, he shelved those projects. Jho Low is his friend and seems to have considerable hold on him.
“The fact is that he is their proxy not mine. If he had behaved as my proxy there would have been no 1MDB etc,” he said on his popular blog yesterday.
