Former prime minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad says Datuk Seri Najib Razak gave him the cold treatment after he questioned the prime minister on the delay of the ‘crooked bridge’ project in the Johor Strait. – The Malaysian Insider pic, April 16, 2015.
Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad said he was given the cold shoulder for six months after questioning Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak on the delay of the "crooked bridge" project in the Johor Strait, the former prime minister told web portal Perak Today.
In the exclusive interview, Dr Mahathir said the falling out with Najib happened after the two discussed the matter over dinner.
Dr Mahathir said Najib had told him of an agreement with Singapore regarding the Johor Causeway and said Malaysia could not touch the causeway unless Singapore agreed to it.
"(So I said) 'show me the agreement' (but) there was no such agreement," Dr Mahathir said.
"For six months he didn't talk to me."
Najib did not speak to him until he met with "Adnan Pahang", Dr Mahathir told Perak Today, possibly referring to Pahang Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Adnan Yaakob.
After that, Najib decided to talk to him again, he said in a video interview also posted on the website.
Dr Mahathir said he then met Najib again and was "very happy" to do so.

"We discussed. But none of my suggestions were accepted. And he continues to do the things which are (sic) wrong. The administration of this country… it is not a rich country. We have to be very careful," he said.
