umno general assembly



Don't play racial cardDon't play racial card

Opportunistic leaders who stoke the “fires of disunity” have no place in Barisan Nasional, warned Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Tun Hussein. The Umno Youth chief said Malaysia could not be moulded by the narrow-mindedness, chauvinism and extremism of those who play the racial card in order to emerge as champions of their race.

UMNO general assembly always runs on racial attacks. The Youth Wing should pay attention to the needs of the people and how to achieve a national identity. No they want to play the racial hero to fight for Malays and Islam. Where is Malaysia then? Without a country there is no race or religion to figh for. As years down the road, the non-Malays will come under attack. Now the Youth Wing attacked Samy Vellu, Dr Koh Tsu Khoon and Ong Tee Keat. And I am sure these Youth Wings will say something...I always believe nobody should follow blindly for a leader. A person must be willing to say yes or no on the agenda on hand. If things arent right, one has to say no. It can't be yes when the principle is wrong! UMNO always wants to champion for the race and religion forgetting that the other races too play a role in the advancement of Malaysia. The leaders are afraid to develop the concept of Malaysia....believing then there is nothing for them to fight for the race and religion. This is a narrow minded approach in this globalization. They talked about 'ketuanan melayu' forgetting again about the other races in the country. They forgot that Malaya then won't get her independence without the support of the Chinese and Indian forming the coalition government...History has become blurred to these leaders...Every citizen should fight for the Malaysia not on race. It is the wrong basis to pursue a dream. Every great leader will be humbled when he forgets his roots....likewise any party which forgets about the basic pursuit of dreams will be shattered...


Malaysia where are the good leaders gone?
