True Struggle?

That is how UMNO remnant chief and ex DPM Zahid described the rout of his party; decimated by defections. Interestingly he went on to say that the way forward is a struggle “for race and religion”

If that had been Hadi, or any other PAS personality, the wording would be routine, unremarkable and capable of being dismissed as malign communalism. But it wasn’t. It was the, presumably, considered opinion of the boss of the remnants of UMNO.

So UMNO, if it survives at all, an unlikely outcome, is to be a racist and communalist party like its current ally. It will ask the electorate for its votes on the basis that Malays take all and others will be lucky to get the crumbs from the table.

It seems that Zahid has still not got the message of GE14 and the new knowledge that the electorate now has about the criminal leadership, the criminal administration and the criminal party organisation of UMNO.

He would do better to try to decide what to do if, as seems probable, the process of de-registration of his party is begun.
