UMNO is sick at age of 21?

A blogger friend Sakmongkol AK47 wrote about Umno Recovery Plan URP- UMNO Recovery Plan-2 and its a very interesting analysis of the state of UMNO at the moment and his suggestion on how to recover.

May I ask, recover from what? From sickness or from defeat? UMNO was not defeated during the last General Election. All in all UMNO have 79 Members in Parliament i.e the single largest party out of which 66 are from Peninsula Malaysia. UMNO have more MPs than PAS or PKR or DAP.

Earlier I wrote about life span. The life span of UMNO. UMNO was born on the 11th day of May 1946. That first UMNO had died in 1987 by way of a Court Order. Tun Mahathir, being a doctor, had revived UMNO (medically I supposed) and UMNO Baru was cloned in 1987. That be the situation, the new UMNO is only 21 years of age now.

The first UMNO died at the age of 41 (1946-1987) and the new UMNO is sick at the age of 21? Is the new UMNO dying at 21?

What can we do to ensure the sickness be cured and UMNO continue to survive another 50 years of the life expectancy of Malaysian at 70.05 years?

Sakmongkol diagnosed UMNO's sickness as cancerous and its terminal. Where do we begin the curing process? Should we go see a Bomoh or stick to the modern medicine or go to a Chinese Sinseh?

If we go the Bomoh, his first reaction will be...."Ini buatan orang! Ada orang dengki kat awak!" The bomoh will ask further..."Ada orang musuh dengan awak ke? Kat pejabat ada musuh ke?" You will answer a straight NO. But the Bomoh will continue by saying.."Ada orang nak kat jawatan awak ni. Itu sebab dia bagi awak santau angin. Awak ni kena santau angin je. Saya boleh buangkan santau angin. Pengerasnya.........."
It all boils down to "pengeras"! and eventually its the Power of the BU & DU again.

If we go the Chinese sinseh, the first thing he will offer you Chinese tea in small cups which he said came directly from China. He will hold you hands and check your heartbeat and pulse. He then scribbled in Chinese characters and command you to purchase the Chinese herbs he prescribed at a Chinese Medicine shop he recommends thereto. He don't care if you are cured at the end of the day or you die taking the fake medicines. As long as they can stay in this country and make money out of whatever source, they don't give a hoot. Their loyalty and love remains with the person who can afford their most expensive medicine. It boils down to the equation of "the greener pasture"

Yet again we shall settle with getting treatment the modern way. Do all the scans and MRIs. Do all the blood test and the necessary screenings. If its really cancer, cut it, amputate it or whatever. Thereafter go for chemotherapy or whatever. Its not the body parts that matter. Its the life that is most precious. Some body parts can reproduce, some need prosthetics. Its alright, we should survive a few more years.

Don't forget to pray hard. Pray for a miracle from God!

Prerogative of Mercy. Beg Your Pardon...

Ada terpandang video oleh Zaid Ibrahim tentang Pardon. Dia kata itu Prerogative of Mercy oleh Agong dan Raja2. High Prerogative of Mercy....or something like that lah. Itu betul. Tapi kalau nak kata process itu tidak ada procedure tak betul lah. Perlembagaan kita dan Akta Penjara telah tetapkan procedure nya. Agong & Raja2 juga perlu bertindak ikut Perlembagaan dan Undang2. Maka itu lah sebabnya digelar Raja Berperlembagaan. Dalam Perlembagaan ditetapkan mesti diadakan Pardons Board yang dipengerusikan oleh Tuanku sendiri. Antara lain Pardons Board itu akan bermesyuarat, pertimbangkan Petisyen yang dikemukakan, dapatkan nasihat dan pandangan ahli Pardons Board itu dan minta nasihat dan pandangan dari Peguam Negara. Bukan macam cerita filem purba. Bukan macam cerita Sultan Melaka ampunkan Hang Tuah untuk tujuan suruh bertikam dengan Hang Jebat. Bukan sebab Sultan Melaka menyesal tersalah hukum Hang Tuah. Bukan ampunkan Hang Tuah sebab Hang Jebat handal sangat dan hanya Hang Tuah sah

Setiausaha Politik selama 18 tahun (2000-2018)

Apabila YB Dato' Adnan Yaakob dilantik sebagai Menteri Besar Pahang, beliau telefon saya bertanya samada saya hendak tak datang ke Kuantan bekerja dengan dia. "Sam, Long ingat elok awak berubah angin. Mari datang Kuantan kerja dengan Long". Begitu lah kata-kata beliau. Kebetulan tahun 1999 itu saya kurang betul menumpukan perhatian kepada kerja-kerja sebagai lawyer. Anak saya baru meninggal pada 20hb August 1998. Dato' Adnan dilantik sebagai MB pada 25hb Mei 1999. "Come lah work with me. We see how I can place you in the MB's Office" Begitu lah Long Nan beritahu saya. "Boleh lah Long. Setahun dua boleh kot. I like myself more as lawyer, Long...." "OK...mari lah setahun dua" Itu jawab Dato' Adnan. "Tapi Long tak boleh lah bagi awak gaji besar Sam...." Sambung Dato' Adnan. "Kita tengok lah mana yang sesuai". Tambah beliau. Pada mulanya sejak bulan Mei 1999 itu saya hanya berulang alik KL-Kuantan. Tujuan

Melayu Ada Kelas Ke? (Bab 2)

Prodigal Maestro membawa ingatan saya ke tahun 1985. Pada tahun itu saya memulakan karier sebagai seorang lawyer setelah letak jawatan dari Judicial & Legal Service. Saya berkenalan dengan Dato' Mohd Ariff Ibrahim (DMA). Beliau seorang akauntan dengan Hanafiah Raslan Mohamad (HRM). Di HRM saya juga kenal Hassan Merican, Toby Lam dan lain-lain. Itu pun kerana saya dengan legal firm Messrs. Gill & Tang dan PS Gill adalah rakan kongsi saya. PS Gill adalah bapa kepada Asha Gill. Ya... Asha Gill dalam Astro tu! DMA adalah orang Kelantan dan isteri beliau Tengku Fatihah Ibni Sultan Ibrahim (Ku Ah) saudara kepada Sultanah Johor dan juga Raja Permaisuri Perlis. Saya terpegun dengan kereta Rolls Royce mereka nombor plat DA 3 (Dato' Ariff 3). Kalau tidak silap hanya ada 9 lagi Rolls Royce yang dimiliki oleh orang Melayu selain dari yang dimiliki oleh Sultan, Raja dan Yang DiPertuan Negeri. Raslan tidak minat Rolls Royce dan lebih gemar kepada Porche (atau Ferrari...saya dah tak i
