Leaving … to go where?

Emotional 

 

I am an UMNO Malay and I write this as very many like me, I’m sure, are experiencing similar feelings. You know how you feel when you have to leave your comfort zone and make decisions which exposes a lot of internal conflicts? For example, taking the plunge into a new job, new industry, meet new faces?

 

Or for example, contemplating a divorce? No, not from my wife … but from UMNO.

 

You can’t change UMNO! UMNO won’t change. Zahid Hamidi won’t change…

 

So, you (like me) would effect the change … by leaving!

 

But, the question is, leaving for whom?? Pakatan? PKR? What? With Anwar Ibrahim staying silent on Azmin Ali when he belittles his wife and capable daughter? Constant internal strife with no clear leadership?

 

DAP? What? Always confrontational, fighting for seats before the elections and position after the election?

And their supporters silently boycotting Malay companies and products?

Even companies with only a 30% Malay stake they cannot accept? So, how?

 

I love PAS, but worry about religious zealots. They don’t fitnah, they are not confrontational, but I’d want them to be more inclusive. Just the Supporters Club won’t do. I’d like them to embrace other religions too as all religion preach only good. And this give us a chance to also showcase what Islam really is about. PAS should be the 3rd force, with an Ulamak wing, and Muslim progressive wing, and a Non Muslim wing. All equal in status.

Common objectives of good governance, no corruption, justice for all, regardless of race.

 

So, how about it PAS? It’s a brave new world out there … and I’m waiting.
