Najib Abdul Razak was given a preview ride on the new Putrajaya MRT Line one day ahead of the official launch because he asked.
MRT Corp CEO Mohd Zarif Hashim said an invitation was extended to Najib after the former prime minister voiced his eagerness through social media.
"As you know, he actually tweeted that 'I would love to be on the train'. Because of the tweet, we replied," said Zarif.
He refused to comment on criticisms that Najib was given special treatment.
