Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak, who went on national television on Thursday to confront charges against him by Dr Mahathir Mohamad, did not address key questions relating to issues such as 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) and the murder of Mongolian interpretator Altantuya Shaariibuu, it was reported.
While Mr Najib said he would not condone any abuse of power in 1MDB and that the state-owned investment company has enough money to pay off all its debts, he made no mention of his ties with hard partying business tycoon Low Taek Jho, Malaysiakini reported on Friday.
The Penang-born tycoon had earlier denied any wrongdoing over 1MDB's investment in a US$2.5 billion (S$3.5 billion) oil venture that failed to take off. The prime minister had also refuted claims that Low was involved in the decision-making of 1MDB.
