Shame on you for celebrating when country still besieged by Covid-19: Upko sec-gen

KOTA KINABALU – United Progressive Kinabalu Organisation (Upko) thinks that the appointment of Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob is going to make Malaysia a laughing stock in the global arena. 

Its secretary-general Nelson W. Angang criticised congratulatory messages from other parties to Ismail while hoping for a better Malaysia. 
“How can it be better when it’s the same people from the same government that you want to better?

“What is there to congratulate, to celebrate about? The country is still besieged by the threat of Covid-19 and the numbers of daily infections and deaths are at a record high.

“Let there be no mistake that the instability the country is experiencing was caused by the internal squabbles for the premiership by the PN (Perikatan Nasional) government itself, specifically between Bersatu and Umno,” he said in a statement today.

Angang said the country was dragged into uncertainties for months and was on the brink of a constitutional crisis because of the chaos created and power lust between the leaders of the PN government.

He recalled that even Istana Negara was not spared their political squabbling and was dragged into the messy handling of the “so-called ‘revocation’” of the emergency ordinances.

The senior party member scathingly called the returning political administration out for “celebrating and congratulating” one another even though they had pushed the country to the “brink of collapse” but in the end, managed to salvage their position through political negotiations.

“They are a disgrace to our country on how they have abused and manipulated the democratic process by hiding behind our sacred federal constitution,” he said.
