AirAsia Bhd chief executive officer Tan Sri Tony Fernandes called off a press conference on Malaysia Airports Holdings Bhd airport tax increment, only to take to twitter to vent his frustrations.

In a series of tweets which started three hours ago (9 something) Fernandes questioned not only the cost of the new KLIA2 terminal but also the construction of a third runway.

The terminal was budgeted to cost RM2 billion, to-date however it has reached the RM2.5 billion mark.

To a tweet by gbeejipp saying he thought the construction of the new terminal and the third runway was Fernandes' idea, Fernandes said Air Asia had wanted to be built behind the main KLIA terminal.

He also said he had not asked for a third runway.
