Desperate? It's an Understatement!

The talk continues


With the recently revelation that UMNO is inviting PAS for a dialogue/talk or whatever you want to call it, I just can't help but find the "talk" to be a attempt by the BN to wrestle a few states from PR via back door. To lose a 2/3 majority in Parliament is painful but the loss of 5 States makes it even more painful for the mighty BN to take in. Now in an attempt to "win" back or at least unsettles the PR, UMNO has been seen as courting PAS for a marriage.

Malay unity and Islamic affairs is the main item on the table. Very interesting and convenient subject to talk. So, in Malaysia, only Malay unity is important. What about the Chinese, Indians and those labeled as lain-lain? Aren't we part of this country too? Don't we contribute anything at all? UMNO is desperate to show to the Malays that it will champion their cause; and ONLY they got the power to do it. FARK OFF!

So now should the MCA talk to DAP and Gerakan for Chinese unity? Should the MIC and Hindraf sit together and talk about Indian unity? All the segregation or unity among race will ultimately lead to racial splitting in the years to come. BN is doing more harm than good in initiating the talk.

Desperate can be an understatement used to describe UMNO now especially in Perak. Tajol Rosli went further in trying to coax PAS Perak to work with them and form a new State Government. A stronger government will be for if PAS work with them. How? With only a few more seats? You become stronger when the people are behind you! He's power hungry! To show he's not, he won't be asking for any seat and willing to offer PAS the MB post. How noble. Heard of Kerajaan Boneka, mate?

In an attempt to take back the states, all sort of tactics are now being used. Racist politics, "talk" to your sworn enemy, sodomy charges are all part of the combo package to remain in power. Pak Lah, please abandon the talk. Nothing will come good of it. You are going out soon. Let Najib work hard to win back the people's heart. Fight graft, improve the economy. After all, BN still govern Malaysia. Don't take the easy way out; there's no short cut to success.
