Great at manipulating people, great at
giving our money to his family and cronies, great at spending our money on
grandiose projects that will later be referred to as “Mahathir’s great
Follies”, and only the great Mahathir made corruption, money politics and the
policy of divide and rule among the various races in Malaysia the pillars by
which UMNO has now been defined starting from the time he took over as Prime
Minister.
As he himself likes to point out “He did
it his way!”
Yes Sir the way someone used power within
government for his own vested interest of consolidating power within himself
for his own agenda rather then for the interest of the Rakyat!
You TUN have greatly failed the trust we
put into you as our leader. What makes you stand apart from any other Malaysian
is the magnitude of the abuse of your executive powers as Prime Minister done
deliberately and with malice aforethought! And the irony of it all is that you
honestly believed that you have been the greatest Prime Minister Malaysia has
ever or will ever have! What a load of rubbish!
I beg to differ O Great One! For just as
you cannot build a house on shifting sand neither can you build a great nation
on lies and half truths.
Take Anwar Ibrahim. When you decided that
you needed to neutralize the potential harm that could have been done to UMNO
if Anwar, Abim and PAS were to align themselves against UMNO you decided to neutralize
Anwar by enticing him into UMNO. And the offer that you dangled in front of
Anwar was too good for the gullible Anwar to refuse. You knew that the pull of power was
something Anwar found impossible to resists.
Mahathir requested a security assessment
on Anwar from PDRM's Special Branch.
In response to Mahathir’s request to the
Special Branch for a security assessment on Anwar Ibrahim, the Special
Branch provided advise that Anwar,
apart from being an ISA detainee, was involve in homosexual relationships. The
SB recommendation was that AI should not be part of the government due to his
immoral behaviour. The letter was signed by the then Director Special Branch Tan Sri Mohd Amin
Osman and delivered to you three weeks before Anwar joined UMNO in 1982.
It was sixteen
years later that Mahathir used the information contained in that SB security assessment to rid himself of Anwar.
Mahathir says that he has a strong
revulsion for what is legally and morally described as an ‘unnatural sex’ –
sodomy – as that was what he accused Anwar of indulging in. If he does have
that strong a revulsion to sodomy then why did he put up with Anwar for 16
years when he knew from day one from that SB assessment what Anwar was already
indulging in!
Mahathir was not repulsed by anything. He
amassed dossier on the wrong doings of his cabinet ministers, including Najib,
to be used on a need basis as and when required. He will use whatever
information he has and with Anwar he had lived that lie from day one.
This is how deceitful Mahathir is. And
this deceit has been standard operating procedure for UMNO ever since.
If Mahathir is prepared to put up with
Anwar for 16 years and living a lie with someone he even accepted as his deputy
what else is he prepared to do? So
I tell you that this Mahathir is truly a great man – a great man that can work
for 16 years with an Anwar he knew was tainted from day one of his entry into
UMNO. And he was even greater in his charade of wanting Anwar out because of
his revulsion of Anwar’s sodomy rather then anything else.
Anwar was never his protégé. All previous
attempts to oust Anwar from his position as DPM was thwarted by Mahathir
because to Mahathir the timing was not right. And that harsh and cruel
treatment of Anwar by Mahathir was never because of any moral issues – it was
just Mahathir’s way of making Anwar understand that the unforgivable sin in as
far as Mahathir is concern is be disloyal to Mahathir. Anything else he will
overlook – but that!
This is what UMNO has now become. You can
be forgiven for anything – corruption, sexual excesses, duplicity, abuse of
executive powers even murder most foul – if your loyalty to UMNO is total.
There is no room for anything else.
And so we must tell UMNO that we too will
have no room for anything else but ABU. There is no room to negotiate, no room
to give and take and certainly no room to accommodate what UMNO now represent
in the future that we aspire our country to have. ABU! ABU! ABU!
