This article by Leslie Lau in The Malaysian Insider is 10 upon 10!

Below are the most interesting (disturbing??) quotes:


[Former de facto Law Minister Datuk Zaid Ibrahim says Datuk Seri Najib Razak’s impending rise to become Umno president and Prime Minister marks the return of “Mahathirism”.

"Why would someone trained and schooled by Dr Mahathir introduce reforms. Have you heard Najib speak of reforms?” he told The Malaysian Insider.

Zaid said he expects Najib's administration to be more authoritarian with more controls and restrictions compared to that of Abdullah's.

"You have destroyed the fabric of our lives as a democracy. Have you not done enough?''

Zaid said Malaysia faced an uncertain and more authoritarian future when Najib takes over.

"You had 23 years of Dr Mahathir, so let's say Najib lasts for 10 years as PM with Mahathir behind him. That means a total of 33 years under Dr Mahathir."]



The cards are now on the table..open for
viewing.



We now know for sure who will be our "leaders" should the present group hold on to "power".



"Power" is the brute force to exert control.



"Authority" is the legitimate mandate given to exercise that "power".



"Power" with legitimate "authority" spells democratic executive governance.



"Power" ill gotten without legitimate "authority" points to dictatorial undemocratic hegemony.



In the present political scenario, the above dichotomy of political advantage is so fittingly clasped as in the Yin-Yang Emblem! Abdullah Badawi has the authority but no power. Najib has the power but no authority!


What do we want?

The choice is in our hands...HOPEFULLY !!

New Polls on UMNO: -
1. Should Members of Barisan Nasional converge to form a Single MULTIRACIAL Party?
2. Who do you want as the new Youth Chief for UMNO?
3. Who do you want as the new Deputy President for UMNO?

Zaid....is smart...to speak out..what some Malaysians maybe thinking.
In reality...UMNO does not have the vast majority support anymore.
Many who read...especially the young educated Muslims...they will go into internet...to check things out...and read the papers...for something else....not mainly on political issues...which they know..is one sided ..all the way.
Based on present way of life...Malaysians are hungry for change of government...and Najib will officially be voted out...thus..not really a PM...voted by Malaysians at all.
What he is..as a PM..is within UMNO's transfer of power..not from people's power...and that also mean...Dollah have betrayed voters...trust...giving up...based on his party moods and desires...and not based on as.. People's PM.
Therefore...Dollah never really kept his promises.
Malaysians....again have been taken for rides...under Dollah.
Are we NUTS..to want Najib to take us for rides...for another 10 years...under him?

I see 4 sheeps.
Parents and two off springs.
Old one..fierce animal.....and the other is not his wife...but a pondan..that needs old bugger sheep to protect
Those two..also not children...but tame useless small sheep...following pondan leader..who in turn flow old bugger.
This means..old bugger is the leader of the pack.
Why must Justin try to be Dan Brown...giving codes in a photo and not speak out ..straight to the point...like me?
