PKR's Kelana Jaya MP Wong Chen today recalled Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak's mere eight-minute appearance in Parliament, 13 days after he tabled Budget 2018.

"He took a question at 10.04am and left the hall at 10.12am," said Wong.

Najib was in Parliament today for Question Time.

However, Wong complained that the entire eight minutes were "scripted", with Najib being lobbed a couple of soft questions.

"(It was on) why he is so awesome in the matter of 'digital economy’. A question planted by an Umno MP.

"After reading a reply text for four minutes, the Umno MP's follow up question (which is usually spontaneous) starts with 'Congratulations for the successful programme, we are a world leader in the digital economy...'

“This kind of suck up is pretty standard," he said.
