BUDGET 2017 Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak took a veiled swipe at his former mentor turned nemesis Dr Mahathir Mohamad.

When tabling Budget 2017 in Parliament this evening, the prime minister recalled visiting the late PAS leader Haron Din in hospital.

During the visit, he said Haron reminded him that one should not love or hate someone too much as the feelings towards the person could change in time.
