KUALA LUMPUR: Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak disagrees with Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad's plan to privatise parts of the public sector to address its bloated size.

As an example, Najib said that the former Barisan Nasional government was forced to reacquire Malaysian Airlines Berhad (MAS) after it was privatised during Dr Mahathir's first tenure as prime minister in the 1990s.
