Melayu Berani Lagi?

Historically the Malays have a reputation for bravery and for battling for their beliefs and their possessions. They did not let themselves be oppressed or cheated out of what was rightfully theirs. Does that remain true today? Are Malays still prepared to fight for what is rightfully theirs or are they content supinely to allow themselves to be robbed by their own community criminals and threatened into keeping silence?

Certainly the bulk of the Malay community have not been bought into accepting the continued domination of crooked politicians. That privilege is confined to the grubby group of politicians, lawyers and corrupt policemen who surround Najis; relying on him to go on providing massive handouts from his huge hoard of stolen public money.

His criminal clique maintain themselves in power by abusing the law and changing it where necessary to protect their positions. Sedition. Censorship. Trumped up prosecutions which can only succeed if they come before bought Courts. Imprisonment without trial. Suborned witnessess. The list is long and grows daily.

Since long before Indepedence in 1957 the Malay community have ben represented by UMNO which has acted as a guardian of Malay rights inside the Malaysian community and, by a majority presence in Parliament, has assured continuing Malay political primacy. That guardian has now been subverted by a criminal Prime Minister and his lackey supporters inside the Party. From being the guardian of the Malay community it has gone to being its destroyer.

Make no mistake. If the Najis clique  is allowed to go on perverting UMNO the latter’s acceptance by oher communities will be eroded and ultimately disappear. No sensible Malay wants that to happen. But Najib and his bought supporters are not in any way sensible. They think only of their stolen gains and how to hang on to them. To achieve that they will try to destroy anything they see as an opposing force.

And yet the solution is very simple.  It costs almost nothing. A general assembly, a vote of no confidence and Najib is powerless and defenceless. A new leader and the clean up can begin to restore the good name of UMNO and Malaysia. You can do it. You must do it to save yourselves and the good name of your community.
