- "So far, the negatives are more than the positives," Dr Mahathir said when asked to comment on Najib's performance.
- The good doctor seemed in good spirits today, which is his 84th birthday, and seemed at first disinclined to elaborate on Najib's weaknesses.
- He repeated his previous disappointment at Najib's idea to build a third bridge linking Malaysia and Singapore on the underdeveloped east flank of Johor because it was done without "proper study" and would not solve the increasing traffic problems on land and sea.
- He also listed the government's policy reversal on teaching mathematics and science in English and Umno's failure to boot out certain partymen who had been linked to corruption as among other examples of Najib's poor decision-making.
