(Bernama) - Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak has issued an order to all Barisan Nasional parties to stop debating the attempt by Penang Umno  to force Gerakan to give up the state BN chairmanship.

“No more debates about this,” was Najib’s reply to questions from journalists on the matter, which had been hogging the pages of almost all major newspapers in the country.

Najib, who is also the BN chairman, said this after chairing the sixth Malaysian Aerospace Council meeting here today.

On Saturday, the Penang Umno liaison committee said the state BN chairmanship, currently held by Gerakan, should be given to Umno, the largest political party in the country, as it had more seats in the Penang state assembly than Gerakan did.

But Gerakan refused to give in as it  felt that it was the prerogative of the  BN chairman to decide on the matter.
Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department and Gerakan president Tan Sri Koh Tsu Koon is presently the state BN chief.

Yesterday, speaking to reporters at a function in Shah Alam, Najib said the state Umno’s request was merely a view and that any decision taken on the matter would be in “the BN spirit of consensus.”

Dr. Koh Tsu Koon is obligated to BN/UMNO leadership because he is a minister through the back door. He will wag his tail. Don't worry about the Chinese in Penang. He has got what he wants.Ask what you want - don't ask what the community wants.

Desperately fishing for pathetic sympathy votes from Penang Chinese on behalf of half-dead Gerakan?

Let UMNO take over as BN Chairman of Penang and see what will happen to the next GE. There will be mass exodus of Chinese and Indian voters leaving BN's component parties. But maybe it is a good thing for UMNO to take over.

Najib is issuing many gag orders:

Gag orders for:

- Penang BN Chairmanship
- BTN issue
- Altantuya scandal
- Bala's SD issue
- Theft of aircraft engine issue [maybe later]
- Deepak/Rosmah issue
- His brother - Nazim's threat to Bala issue
- Cow-head issue

Oh Bligh me........ how many gag orders is he planning to stuff into his throat?

Read that as 'Tsu Koon' is deposed! Otherwise, Najib the jerk would have just said "No, Gerakan will continue to hold the chair". Period.

But no, he said "blah, blah, blah.... consensus". That means he will be taking the Penang BN chairmanship and gift it to, maybe, the hero Ahmad. This will be a tight slap to Tsu Koon thick skin, but he will probably just roll over like a good dog that he is.

But it will be good if UMNO gets it. So much more the reason for all you proud Penang folks to give the BN another huge kick in the behind during the next GE.

Najis, don't be a hypocrite. I'm sure you want Penang. It's your warlords working towards Want-Malaysia. You and your greedy UMNO bastards will not stop at west m'sia. I'm sure your warlords in east m'sia will later flex their muscles and demand BN chairmanship (or have they already got sabah? I'm not sure). Way to go !

Ah Koon ...ah...Ah Koon..... What TF is happening to you. First you have Ahmad Ismail blaming you for all the troubles that you caused him and rightfully demanded an apology from you, and now you have another UMNO goon demanding that you give up your BN chairmanship.

Before that you had a backbencher from UMNo asking you to quit your minister post! Humiliating you infront all everybodies who care to listen that you are a minister pintu belakang. Really malu leh!

You see, not only people from the opposition have no respect for maggot like you, even your BN colleague think you are not worthy of your role as an UMNo dog.

And may I add that Penang was the first state to have a deputy CM appointed when BN won in Penang in the late 80's. You don't see deputy CM's/MB's appointed in the much larger states like Johore, Selangor, Perak and Pahang. One does not need to be a rocket scientist to see that UMNO had demanded for an UMNO man to be appointed as deputy CM in exchange for UMNO's support. And that's the reason why I have always written that Koh T. K. is UMNO's lackey.

UMNO can chair BN Penang for all I care. After all, MCA and Gerakan, even when Gerakan was chairing Penang BN, were having their balls squeezed by UMNO. In fact, it was UMNO who was behing the scenes in governing Penang. You can see that be looking at the huge Government contracts like the 2nd bridge, PORR, and maybe even the LRT projects, which were earmarked for UMNO cronies(read warlords). Of course, with BN losing Penang, the latter 2 projects were put on hold by UMNO.

well najis, you can order your dogs to stop barking.....but as far as Penangites are concerned, they do NOT need umno or gerakan here at all.

Penang do not need racist like your doggy ahmad ismail.

Penang do not need buttocks artist like liar azhar ibrahim.

Penang do not need yes man like your poodle KTK.

anyway najis, Pakatan Rakyat is doing fine here, so please ask your dogs to stop barking as it's creating a nuisance here, best is to put them to sleep and save cost of feeding them.

BN is disintegrating right before our eyes. With the economic slowdown, there is just not enough money to go round in BN to make everyone happy.

They need to create chaos so that whoever holds Najis balls, he gets the money.

The vultures are circling the skies before the beast is dead.
