KUALA LUMPUR:
Umno president Datuk Seri Najib Razak has called on all Umno members to
intensify efforts in preparing the party for the 13th general election.
"Sound the siren, beat the war drums
and heat up the engines. Do not ever allow lies, falsehoods and any attempt at
fooling the people, to succeed.
"Remember that past deeds will just
remain in the annals of history if we fail in this big test. Umno must continue
to be strong and relevant in order to chart new achievements for the sake of
religion, society and nation," he said in his message in conjunction with
Umno's 65th anniversary celebration today.
Yes
Datuk Seri we must beat the war drums and heat up the engines. We must not
forget UMNO’s past deeds against religion, society and our nation! Deeds
that the Rakyat must not forget even when UMNO loses the 13th
General Election!
Without
UMNO after the 13th General Election it does not mean that Teoh Beng
Hock, Kugan, Aminurrasyid and Altantuya will be brought back into our lives
and the lives of their loved ones!
Without UMNO it does not mean that all the deaths in PDRM’s custody and the two at MACC can be erased from our sensibilities.
Without UMNO it does not mean that all the deaths in PDRM’s custody and the two at MACC can be erased from our sensibilities.
Without
UMNO it does not make right the mismanagement within MINDEF that has not only
cost our nation billions but also inevitably taken the lives of our defence
forces in unnecessary accidents due to faulty and outdated equipments.
Without
UMNO how long do you think we will still need to rid ourself of a government
that has grown corrupt and self serving of its own interest rather then that of
the Rakyat?
Without
UMNO how long do you think we would still need to rid ourselves of racial
profiling, racial discrimination and this insidious Ketuanan Melayu that has so
weaken the Malays?
If
we did not have the dirty and self serving hands of UMNO steadying the reins of Government for
the past 50 years we would still have Teoh Beng Hock, Kugan, Amniursayid and
Alatantuya – just to name a few…..because without UMNO PDRM will be held
accountable for those that are murdered while under their custody. Without UMNO
MACC will not be used to harass
Pakatan Rakyat and Teoh Beng Hock will still be alive today. All the physical
and mental torture done to its own people under the auspices of the ISA would
not have happened! Chief Ministers guilty of raping under age Malay schoolgirls
would have been prosecuted and put behind bars. The Judiciary would have been
our protector against injustices rather then the perpetrator of it.
And
yet even as we know all this we have Najib telling UMNO to “Sound the
siren, beat the war drums and heat up the engines”. Why, is he living on Mars?
You all must remember that
getting UMNO out does not make the past right. It will not bring back those who
died because PDRM did not do the right thing! Let us not quibble over
peripheral issues. That PDRM and MACC did not meant for these deaths to happen!
The core issue is this. That people die in custody – repeatedly.
It will not punish those
who became wealthy because of corruption. It will not make right the suffering
of those who lost the means of earning a decent income, their houses, their
land, their love ones and their friends because of the abuses by UMNO.
Ousting UMNO will start the
process of clearing the fog from Malaysian politics as we know it now. There is
more work to be done but it will start the process of healing and give to all
of us a sense of justice being done. A sense of those that do wrong will be
punished. It will be the start of putting balance back into our life. The
balance between good and evil. Between right and wrong. Between punishment and
reward. It will be a start of living our life with hope and belief that life
can be good for all of us……and then we go on to better things with Pakatan
Rakyat!
I don't care to imagine what would life be without UMNO? I'd rather let it happened first and think about it later. That's because I am an ordinary citizen who lives out the politics of the masses with the power of only one vote and nothing, while a politician would turn that one vote into a powerful something. All I care now is to give my one vote to a politician who could carve me a life without UMNO a dream comes true.

ReplyDeleteWhatever happened the past 2 days access to comment was stalled by notice "Blogger is unavailable". Some blogs experienced losses of previous postings and readers' comments. I am mistaken this thread has 4 comments now 3 left.
ReplyDeleteFMZam...you are right...in other posting I have also lost same.
ReplyDeleteFirst we must go to the Kampung and village volk, tell them if the Government had not done something for them, their voices were never heard, their social wealthfair was never care of after 50 over years, what makes them think the Government will suddenly change their mind or policy.We've been fooled long enought but don't you fool our children no more. Take the buying vote money and vote for the opposition, vote for change. Afterall the buying vote money is from our own blood, sweat and tears money.
