FORMER prime minister (PM) Datuk Seri Najib Razak seems to be one of the many who loves airing his thoughts in the public space, even when he is behind bars after he lost the SRC International case.In his most recent letter, he slammed his adversary, former PM Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad, calling him a failure in many areas.Najib then twisted the words that Dr M has reportedly said before, such as “Malays are bad at politics and would be divided if they were to enter the arena”.
Dia tubuh UMNO baharu, dia keluar.
Dia tubuh BERSATU, dia dipecat.
Dia tubuh PEJUANG, dia keluar.Dia juga yang kata:
“Orang Melayu tak bijak politik, Bila tak dapat sesuatu dia tubuh parti baru dan menyebabkan orang Melayu berpecah belah.” pic.twitter.com/QW9BdmbfeV

Furthermore, Najib sarcastically stated that Dr M created the new UMNO only for him to leave the party.
Dr M then formed Bersatu, from which he was unfortunately kicked out. Finally, he formed Pejuang, only for him to leave the party after a humiliating loss in the recent elections.All the while, Najib forgot his own humiliating loss at the elections that led to his losses in court and his jailing.Nevertheless, netizens were quick to defend the ‘father of modernisation’ as Twitter user @RajGreatEastern stated:
Rilek DS. Jgnlah mengutuk seorang negarawan yg sudah 98 tahun. Penghormatan utk umur beliau harus dititikberat
Jasa Tun @chedetofficial sangat besar untuk Malaysia 🇲🇾 & tidak boleh dinafikan. Ianya akan dikenang selalu. Sebab itu Tuhan bagi dia umur panjang hampir ke-100 tahun

The user asked Najib to calm down, as mocking a national hero who is 98 is not the way to go.He said respect for the elderly needs to be followed through, including by politicians.
“His contribution to the country is big and it cannot be doubted,” the netizen then added that it could be the reason why God is giving him a long life.Another user @lizziehwan questioned why Najib was able to tweet from prison:
@anwaribrahim why Najib can still have access to social media? What kind of double standard policy is this? Jail time for politicians got special treatment ka?

There were tweets that pointed out the failures that Najib Razak is accountable for.
User peptalk @AizatKamal10 stated:
Dia tubuhkn 1mdb..dia xtau duit masuk
Dia lantik jho low…dia x kenal
Dia guna duit 2.6bil…dia xtau sapa bg n x penah cek duit bank…
Dia da dalam penjara…tp xpenah ada gmbar dlm penjara dan hari2 main fon…— peptalk (@AizatKamal10) February 11, 2023
In English, he stated that Najib created the 1MDB fund, and he claims to not know how money magically appeared in the account.He then appointed Low Taek Jho @ Jho Low, whom he claims he does not know either.
Next, Najib used the RM2.6 bil that was in his account and claimed that he did not know who provided him with the money.Now, he is supposed to be in prison, yet he’s tweeting every day, and there is no photographic evidence that he is currently serving time. — Feb 12, 2023
