What is right away a RM250 million NFC debacle was once part of a grand plan by a people in a Agriculture method to have Malaysia excessively self-confident in food, which was a good as well as possibly plan as well as could have been unequivocally successful. But unfortunately, it was hijacked by UMNO as well as incited in to a money-making intrigue for a chosen leaders.
The same goes with a New Economic Policy as well as whatever which a nation's planners have so distant come up with for a supervision to exercise so as to good a country. All have possibly been hijacked by UMNO or upheld upon to a BN partners. It is for a reason which whilst a UMO led supervision loudly proclaims 'progress', what a adults unequivocally feel is 'regress'.
With confidence in food, Malaysia would be means to save billions in a long term as well as even be a net food exporter. If a NEP had been implemented properly as well as diligently, a goals would have been achieved by right away as well as a process abolished. Malaysia could have been a success story for a rest of a world to emulate.
Unfortunately, UMNO marred everything. How? Well, they meddled, shortchanged, cheated, siphoned out as well as stole all which they could put their hands on. It is not for zero which UMNO is described as a bandit ship. So those thieves in Somali, watch out - UMNO Mari!
Classic e.g. of an UMNO money-making scheme
Th! e NFC di saster is a classical e.g. of an UMNO money-making intrigue moving during a slickest - until of impetus internal infighting done a opposition factions in UMNO spin opposite as well as spill a beans upon each other. From a UMNO president, deputy boss all a approach down to a top guns in a girl as well as Wanita wings, they all frankly supported Shahrizat Jalil - a Women's apportion as well as conduct of a Women's wing - as her family dug a huge hole for themselves with a National Feedlot Centre cattle breeding project.
So it is not startling which Shahrizat got unequivocally angry when her UMNO colleagues after incited their backs upon her as well as her family. After betraying her, they forced her as well as her family to step out as well as take upon a full blame. Remember, someone leaked out those tip details to a PKR, a little in UMNO claim it came from Prime Minister Najib Razak's camp but in a finish he had to beat a hasty shelter since a liaison got completely out of hand.
Then as if to show their gratitude, a duplicitous UMNO chosen rushed out a single by a single to publicly thank her for her 'sacrifice' as well as her magnanimous spirit in accepting responsibility as well as not tarring them in a process!
But if Shahrizat is smart, she should grieve sincerely as well as fully. She should additionally blow a alarm upon a alternative chosen for their thievery. After all, she has left upon several Umrahs (trips to Mecca) in a past couple of stressful months alone as well as she should know unequivocally well which crime is bootleg as well as a impiety in a eyes of God as well as Islam.
Tried to quarrel back
For a while, Shahrizat attempted to quarrel back. Her famous giveaway comment which 'which BN personality has no problem' was meant to keep a wolves as well a! s fickle friends during bay. But in a end, it was usually as well much for a UMNO chosen to handle. Loyalty has never been a peculiarity they have been known for anyway. It has regularly been income which was their common denominator. And when Najib, who is additionally a UMNO president, found his own 'transactions' in NFC being exposed, that's when he finally started to pierce in upon Shahrizat.
Being a lerned lawyer, a Women's apportion contingency have done certain which a paper route did not lead to her as well as her name is not in any of a documents. But a paper route opposite her father as well as three young kids is usually as well great for a common UMNO runaround tricks to work here - not with a 13th ubiquitous election looming as well as Najib facing a risk of an additional public tarring if his Kazakhstan connections in a NFC have been exposed.
Remember, Najib has pitched to a UMNO warlords which BN can usually win formed upon his recognition alone since a individual components like MCA, Gerakan, MIC as well as UMNO itself have all lost their credibility with a people. This is because he contingency strengthen himself during all costs - so as to strengthen them! That a UMNO-BN can tumble for it as well as agree is a sign of how unfortunate a once-mighty bloc has become!
Crocodiles pit
One might wonder, because Salleh Ismail, a NFC chief as well as Shahrizat's husband, did not rivet a genuine full-fledged professional team to manage a project. Critics indicate out which such a pierce would have degraded their purpose. Managing a plan by himself, helped by his own family, done a alleged rapine easier.
The NFC during a finish of a day was usually an additional UMNO money-making vehicle. Stealing is regularly a categorical bulletin in UMNO project! s as wel l as these embody Proton, Malaysian Airlines, Port Klang Free Zone, Tenaga, Telekom, a Independent Power Producers as well as so on. For a past 5 decades, rapine has turn what UMNO does best. It has turn a well-honed art, with a UMNO chosen additionally assuming a new ability - shielding, deflecting as well as safeguarding their colleagues who slipped up.
But for those who could not be saved - like a Shahrizats - these ruthless businessmen had no remorse in mercilessly withdrawing their support. Such is hold up in a crocodiles pit.
Najib's palm in NFC flushed out
It is not startling which Najib has said unequivocally little upon a NFC box as a final bit of sharp NFC headlines involved a purchase of a RM1.7million oppulance unit in Kazakhstan. His daughter tied together in to a absolute domestic family there as well as he is believed to have sanction a memorandum of understanding between NFC as well as a Kazakh party when he visited a nation upon an central trip in Jun final year.
Firstly, such a deal is bootleg as a NFC is not authorized to invest overseas. Second, because did Najib, who is additionally a Finance apportion tighten an eye? Did he or his Kazakh friends get something out of it? No doubt, whatever 'goodie' he might have picked up in Kazakhstan would pale in more aged with a commission which he is indicted of corruptly getting from a Scorpene submarines paid for in 2002, but Najib is facing a battle of his life.
Najib knows he has to win GE-13 as well as does not need any more negative publicity. On a contrary, he needs to have himself out to be a hero as well as this is what he is right away perplexing to dope Malaysians in to thinking. That he is a crime fighter, whilst poor Shahrizat is to be pitied as well as forgiven.
Yes, Shahrizat faces seeing her father as well as young kids being jailed. To a tender-hearted in UMNO, most of whom! have be en farming housewives, this might be sufficient to have them take off their aprons as well as impetus to a ballot boxes as well as vote for a BN. But will it additionally dope a civic as well as prepared members in UMNO? Certainly, a device won't cut it with a alternative Malaysians.
New domestic quandary - UMNO's inability to plunge into corruption
So, for now, Najib reckons he has done sufficient to save UMNO as well as to soften voters. He hopes which such a pierce will additionally take a breeze out from a sails of PKR as well as a strategy director, Rafizi Ramli, who has been during a forefront of a fusillade of revelations done opposite a Shahrizats.
But here, Najib might have got it wrong. Whether Salleh is found guilty as well as locked up or not is by right away secondary. The most critical thing as distant as Malaysians have been concerned, is how Najib as well as a supervision cleans up a NFC mess.
The manner in which a Shahrizats paid for condos as well as a supermarket in Singapore as well as their sale of a Singapore-incorporated firm has blown a alarm upon how a UMNO chosen have been siphoning national income overseas. Malaysians have been right away inspired for more luscious tidbits. They want to know how it was done as well as what will Najib do to have certain which a income is recovered.
This of impetus puts Najib in a new domestic dilemma. If he starts to purify up a supervision as well as UMNO, he can expect to face immediate resistance from alternative factions together with from Mahathir Mohamad, a former premier who ruled Malaysia as well as UMNO for 22 years. Given which Najib has his own huge 'baggage' to carry, this is a single charge which he could never achieve - as well as which is to weed out corruption. In fact, no UMNO personality could, even if he had no container during all.
Those who have container i! n UMNO o utnumber those who have been purify as well as they will have certain which all attempts to 'reform' Malaysia have been frustrated. This is a incident as well as this is because when former premier Abdullah Badawi was asked what were a categorical issues facing Malayia in a new Bloomberg interview, Badawi usually dared to mention race as well as religion.
Weapon of Mass Destruction
So, no - conjunction UMNO or Najib is protected yet. Shahrizat is a good scapegoat but not a large sufficient scapegoat to catch all of a UMNO-BN's misdeeds. Furthermore, a backlash from a Shahrizats as well as a alternative UMNO factions to Najib's ultimate handling of a NFC - charging Salleh for CBT - have yet to be seen.
Malaysia's Cowgate debacle remains a "weapon of mass destruction" for a PKR as well as Pakatan Rakyat to make use of to defeat a corrupt UMNO-BN in GE-13.
