Umno Baru should reinvent itself - superadmin - 08-27-2022 Umno Baru should use this opportunity, post-Najib Razak, to reinvent the party and attempt to project a cleaner image to the general public. Unfortunately, many Umno Baru politicians are running scared and the sad fact is that the majority, if not all of their politicians, fear change. The party is now 76 years old, but the Umno Baru Malays appear to be more insular, racist, insecure, misogynistic, and worst of all, clueless. While the rest of Malaysia have embraced the 21st century, Umno Baru Malays are like kampung chickens, squawking with delight as they scratch around in the dirt. Theirs is not an irrational fear, because the same trepidation is also projected into the general public. It took several decades of Umno Baru misrule, mismanagement, money issues, corruption issues, abuse of funds and power, discriminatory practices, and cover-ups, before the rakyat decided to give Umno Baru a bloody nose in 2018, at the 14th general election GE14). When Umno Baru politicians squabble and grab what they feel is their entitlement, it is the rakyat who suffers. - More -
