UMNO's fatal conceit: part 1

  1. Umno has got an unexcisable problem. It thinks when it enters any elections, it must win. It thinks it's etched in stone.
  2. Hence, when it entered the kemaman by- elections, it's a fait acompli, it's written in the stars. It must surely win.
  3. When they lost, it starts blaming others but itself. Some reputable newspaper blamed for example, low voter turnout as a cause for UMNOs loss.
  4. Wait a minute, weren't we were told repeatedly, That low voter turnout was advantageous to UMNO? Why the change in story? The liar must have a good memory. Obviously the people at that newspaper don't
  5. Then there are the ignoramuses who fall back on the tiresome story, that UMNO lost and is rejected by the Malays because they are pimps or Barua to DAP.
  6. Let's put our thinking caps for a while. What these people are saying, is that they do NOT need the non Malays to keep UMNO in power. If they don't need, why must the nons support them? The nose is flat, you push your cheeks to make the nose looked sharp.
  7. Even if UMNO needs non Malay support, UMNO is not willing to give the rights that accompany non Malay support. So don't support them
  8. Apply the same logic. If UMNO loses Malay support because it becomes DAPs Barua , it follows that PH , in particular the DAP is injured when associating with UMNO.
  9. UMNO is the sickman in the unity government. It's the leper, no one wants to touch. Or to use a more earthy comparison, its the person with contagious STD.
  10. So treat UMNO as one. Stay away from it
  11. Put them in their proper place. Not by ditching them out, since they want to be part of the unity government and they have not insulted the unity government.
  12. The strength of UMNO lies with the Malay base and its ability to indoctrinate and lie to them. Cut them off, there.
  13. Limit their access through MARA, Felda, Risda and other glcs giving them access to the Malay base .
  14. Mamu Anwar doesn't have to be sentimental about UMNO. Don't allow them recover their deficit. Ease their eventual demise. Remember what Napoleon said, when your enemies are making mistakes, don't interrupt them . By giving them Mara, Felda, Risda etc, mamu Anwar is interrupting them. What la
  15. Meanwhile the UMNO 'extras' are busy coming up with cock and bull excuses as to why UMNO lost in the kemaman by-election. They do not erase the fact that UMNO lost, can't deliver and fast becoming irrelevant.
  16. Too much analysis does indeed lead to paralysis.umno first doesn't know what to do despite the shriling and shrieking Quranic incantations of its secretary general. UMNO is in a state of rigor mortis, a bodily condition following death. That is what is happening to UMNO .
  17. Even dr Mahathir, who has nothing to do with UMNO now, warned that UMNO risks being wiped out in the 16thh GE. Why should he be concerned about UMNO?
  18. Unless, UMNO he says go back to its constricting and choking ethic extremism and chauvinistic proclamations. Which is a sure prescription for racial implosion.
  19. The way forward for Malaysia is an acknowledgement of racial pluralism and harmony capitalising on the races best merits. Not the reactionary prescriptions of the doctor.
  20. The hard truth on the ground is, racial harmony and accommodation is the norm and not incessant racial confrontation.
  21. All the reasons given and rationalised by UMNO people, UMNO 'extras',UMNO deviants who got sacked and even busybody Dr Mahathir,share one common denominator
  22. That one common denominator is that UMNO has a natural entitlement to rule. When UMNO loses the entitlement they , UMNO people go mad .
  23. They become irrational, blamed others and choose to close their minds.
  24. That they become irrational, lose their minds, enter into a state of non compos mentis, should not surprise us. Whom the gods would destroy, they first make mad .
  25. With all the happenings in UMNO, it is indeed going mad. The election results deniers, cock and bull excuses , blaming others and intensification of chauvinistic proclamations, it is indeed going mad .
  26. What will eventually follow is the destruction of UMNO. I am afraid, that part of dr Mahathir's prognosis that UMNO will be anihilated in the 16th GE, will be true. Hehe.
  27. The only thing that surprises me is that dr Mahathir, who has nothing to do with UMNO,should be concerned over its fate. Why Maa?
  28. UMNO does not represent ALL Malays, only the extremists, chauvinistic and right wing Malays. So the only reason dr Mahathir is concerned about UMNO could only be because he is actually a closet umnoist.
  29. Perhaps eventually he hopes to be reinstated by UMNO as a person who continuously stirs up cause celebre. Then UMNO can say a wilted sireh pulang ke gagang.
  30. How was it possible that UMNO who believes that's it is entitled to rule, has the mandate from heaven, lost badly in the kemaman by-election?
  31. Some of the reasons, I have pointed out in my article, written a week before voting. See my article UMNO has 2 chances in the kemaman by-election, slim and none. I am sure other 'analysts have other reasons not thought of by me .
  32. I look at the UMNO Now from different perspectives. Mamu Anwar may want to look at UMNO differently too.
  33. The diminished majority in Pelangai and the embarassing loss in kemaman, showed that UMNO can't enter elections without the help of PH. It's a shell of its former self. Just a paper tiger
  34. From afar, it looks manacing, when near we all say, ' cilaka it's only a paper tiger' meant to be burnt before the altar .
  35. The UMNO Now,must necessarily force us to look at UMNO in the context of politics.
  36. If we define politics to be the art of struggling, achieving and maintaining power, the present UMNO must be treated accordingly.
  37. That is to treat UMNO as a diminished power, a shell of its former self and just a paper tiger. Not to elevate UMNO to prominence as if it has the Devine right to govern.
  38. The reality is , UMNO is barely surviving on a respiratory machine provided by PH. Let us ease its passing and not give it more oxygen .
