This article in malaysiakini indicates the existence of 2 major ills that beset our nation Malaysia.
'MACC officers punched and kicked me' indicates the cases of corruption that are being investigated and also the Guantamo style tactics of the law enforcers that have resulted in deaths in police custody.
Of course it is not surprising that most UMNO members are not in favour of the proposal by their own disciplinary board chairman who suggested that some wings be abolished as "he did not want young members involved in “political bribery.”" (Source the Star 30th Jan 2009).
I suppose it also implies that it is OK for older, more senior members to do so!
Recent developments in UMNO Perak show that the problems of UMNO are deep and probably too difficult to ensure Malaysia enjoys a clean and efficient government.
Since UMNO cannot help itself to recover, the only peaceful recourse left for us the ordinary citizens who helped it to govern the nation for more than 50 years is to say:
"Thank you but the BN is now irrelevant for our needs. Take the next few years to regroup and change your policies and we will reconsider for the general elections. Now go and play an effective role as the Opposition."
