KUALA LUMPUR: The Malay Economic Action Council (MTEM) today branded Petronas chief Shamsul Azhar Abbas as ungrateful for the way he treated former advisor Mahathir Mohamad.
MTEM CEO Nizam Mahshar, said a reliable source in Petronas had told him that Petronas cleared Mahathir’s office within 24 hours after he sent in his resignation letter to PM Najib Tun Razak.
“Petronas humiliated Tun by clearing out his office in KLCC and sealing it up barely 24 hours after his resignation.
“Is this how a national oil company treat a man who was instrumental in turning Petronas into a Fortune 500 company? asked Nizam at a press conference today.
“Tun has made tremendous contributions in his 27 years as prime minister and also as advisor to the oil giant? Are they really glad to let him go?
According to Nizam, there must be another reason for Mahathir’s resignation besides his cited health issues.
Mahathir stepped down as Petronas adviser on Dec 1, 2013, saying that he made the decision following his doctor’s advice for him to “slow down”.
However, Mahathir said he would remain as an adviser to the national car maker Proton Berhad.
THIS BASTARD DESERVE TO BE TREATED AS SUCH.NOW,NAJIB HAS DECLARED -WAR- AGAINST TUN N HIS FAMILY.

Truth of the matter, Mamak Al-Kutty is just wasting space, and quite similarly he's wasting oxygen in God's green earth. He should also resign from being Proton Advisor. A cikai laughable car, while his son is out there sitting on his broke ass getting percentage from selling Brabus
