Everyone's talking of change but talk is really cheap and only good for the TV viewers.
Change can really be painful and unwelcome. Let's read what one malaysiakini has to suggest in this article Umno will not and cannot change, period.
It is a stark message to all Malaysians that we need to take a more conscious effort to correct the political problems we have created over the past 30 odd years.
Part of the problem is that most Malaysians did not give a damn about what the political leaders did and now we really have a major crisis of government credibility.
The other part of the blame lies with the political leadership as we allowed corrupted people to stay and corrupt the whole system.
Instead of weeding out incompetent and corrupt leaders, often many bad decisions were always done on a collective basis so that over time, we end end with a Cabinet full of deadwood. Once the deadwood reaches a critical mass, the whole nation suffers.
I support the 2-party system so I hope UMNO can change; preferably in one or two terms in the Opposition. That is what Malaysia needs and that is what I hope Malaysians will fulfill. After all, political leadership is not about one's lineage but whether one can truly serve the people.
