PETALING JAYA: Former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak (pic) stopped short of asking the Finance Minister to return to school to study basic accounting terminologies.

Najib asked Finance Minister Lim Guan Eng if he could tell the difference between negative, positive, surplus and deficit following the latter's unwarranted claim that Sarawak would go bankrupt in three years if it continued tabling an annual budget of RM11bil, as it would soon deplete its RM30bil reserve.
