Why Malaysians need to support UMNO … again
#1

IN the upcoming state polls and in the next 16th General Election (GE16), Malaysians must decide on the fate of UMNO.

Very few would disagree that UMNO is at its weakest in the aftermath of GE15. But as fate would have it, a weak UMNO suddenly decided to support Malaysians in the formation of the unity government.

Many think that that was political expediency because UMNO would have drowned itself if Perikatan Nasional (PN) formed the government.

Now, more than half a year later, UMNO has managed to weed out most of its enemies from within but still harbours many who are quick to act selfishly for their own political careers by sacrificing the ideals of multi-cultural Malaysia to a single mono-cultural dominance of Malaysia.

In life, many of us have felt the hands of fate reminding us to reflect and change, and I truly feel that UMNO is poised on the precipice of change, whether it wants to or not.

Sleeping with the enemy

If there is anyone in the room who believes that the DAP and Umno have kissed and made up and it’s all hunky-dory, he must be living on a different planet.

Decades of enmity cannot be so easily put aside even if it is for the “greater good”.

The DAP’s short fling with Islamist party PAS is a case in point.

Umno and DAP leaders may do what they can to coax and cajole their respective grassroot members to vote for one another’s candidates in the coming state elections, which they are already doing, but on the ground, sentiments are very different.

The response to such calls from within Umno is very telling.
