"Why has a PAC not looked into a airfield cost of a brand new LCCT as good as why a third runway is needed," he added, regulating his Twitter hoop @tonyfernandes.

When an additional Twitter user @gbeejipp asked if a building a whole of a brand new LCCT as good as a third runway had been his idea, Fernandes retorted: "We wanted a depot to be built behind main terminal. And no third runway."

When called "arrogant" by Twitter user @firdyfire, Fernandes lashed out in his own defence, revelation a user to "ask my 9000 staff if I'm arrogant."

Putrajaya insisted last month it had "no choice" but to exercise a controversial share barter as "if (MAS) continues to have waste as good as a supervision has to inject funds, afterwards there will be even more anger."
