Face reality of UMNO

Face reality: there is no such a thing as ‘ketuanan Melayu’. This is again a scam to deceive the Malays into making them support UMNO. UMNO never fought for ‘ketuanan Melayu’. UMNO struggled to save the sovereignty of the Malay rulers against what the British colonial masters were trying to do. That was very noble but why was it, it must just stop there.
UMNO then followed the dictates of the British colonial power.

Face reality: Malaysia does not belong to the Malays only. Malaysia belongs to all Malaysians. Malaysians are equal in the eyes of the law and have equal rights in all economic fields and activities. Malaysians had been duped into believing that there was no need for transparency in all government deals.

Face reality: ‘Malay privileges’ was a myth. It was a mirage and to go around demonstrating to show concern that this is being threatened, is simply to exhibit UMNO Malays’ height of stupidity and to show how misguided they were. It must be emphasised that it is not the privilege of the discontented UMNO Malays to simply carry out any illegal demonstrations for any cause at all.
What privileges do poor Malays have? Subsidies given by the government benefit the rich rather than the poor.

Face reality: If in a democracy UMNO loses power, please do not go around demonstrating, lamenting this loss of power. Do not bring racial issues when they are not there. Stop being cowards and weaklings just because a majority of Perak Exco Members are non Malays. Stop behaving like spoiled brats and be always in need of generous help in order to survive.

UMNO Malays have enjoyed life for far too long and have had an easy life since independence and it is time they realise that Malaysia does not owe them a living. Work and strive like everybody else. The days of enjoying a cushy life is gone. Malaysia needs people who want to work and toil in an environment of social and economic equality.

Face reality: Corruption, cronyism and patronage flourished rather than being curbed.

Most UMNO members especially those in the corridors of power were adamant that Pak Lah had not failed the nation or even UMNO and the Barisan Nasional itself. These sycophants had turned Pak Lah into some kind of a feudal lord and their role was simply to keep this lord happy and not to awaken him to face the stark reality. That is another instance of ‘ketuanan Melayu’ in UMNO.
