PETALING JAYA: AirAsia boss Tan Sri Tony Fernandes (pic) said the time has come to shut down his Twitter account, saying that social media has become an angry place.

“Having closed Facebook time is coming to shut down Twitter. Bene (sic) such a fan but too much negativity and falsehood and anger. It’s been an amazing ride. Feel much better now not on Facebook and am sure will be even better without Twitter. Social media has become an angry place,” he said in a tweet Sunday (Jan 12).
