KUALA LUMPUR, June 5 (Bernama) -- United States Senator John McCain said he had a 'terrific' meeting with Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak when he visited Malaysia last week and regarded the latter as "an impressive reformer".

"I had a terrific meeting with Prime Minister Najib in Malaysia - an impressive reformer who is improving US-Malaysia relations," McCain wrote in his tweeter message.

Senator McCain and Senator Joseph Lieberman visited Malaysia on May 30 at the invitation of the Kuala Lumpur Business Club to attend the Invest Malaysia 2012 Conference, which was launched by Najib.

While here, they called on Najib and Foreign Minister Datuk Seri Anifah Aman besides meeting with business and civil society leaders as well as opposition party representatives to discuss various issues.
