MALAYSIA UNDER UMNO AND BARISAN NASIONAL TODAY
Today under the administration of Dato’ Sri Najib Tun Razak our
country has deviated too far from the country envisioned by Almarhum
Tunku Abdul Rahman in the Proclamation of Independence 1957 and the
Proclamation of Malaysia 1963, that is to become a nation based on the
principles of liberty and justice.
Today, our honour is being sold by corrupt leaders who are only thinking
about themselves. They do everything to stay in power, because they fear
being brought to justice. They do not care when the authorities from many
countries around the world are acting against them and their family
members. They dismiss the opinion of international bodies and respected
analysts as fake news.
The world once envied us. But today that envy has disappeared because of
what today’s incompetent leaders have done. Today, Malaysia is more
popular for corruption, malfeasance and wrong doings at the highest level,
such as the case of 1MDB.
At home, today, Malaysians are being burdened by a surge in the cost of
living while politicians, their wives and families, enjoy themselves in
holidays abroad.
Today Malaysians are being forced to pay the regressive GST, only for that
money to be used to pay for the luxurious lives of politicians who fly in
private jets around the world.
Malaysians are threatened with narrow racist rhetoric such that we
beginning to distrust each other. These distrust is being sown by politicians
because they know they can win easily by dividing us.
