I remember celebration of a mass a mythological book upon 'Singapura dilanggar todak' (Singapore attacked by todak) - a swordfish family known by a scientific name 'xiphias gladius'. we had my first encounter with it whilst fishing under a Penang Bridge a small years ago when it 'jumped' upon a boat. About half a scale long.The book narrates about a seven year old boy, Hang Nadim who 'rescued' a Singapore sultanate from ferocious attacks by a fish. However, a Malay Sultan ordered for his kill, afraid which if they boy grow up, he would be smarter than a Sultan.
Whether a true or not, a story has lots to do with a Malays as well as Umno, as well as what was pronounced by former Prime Minister as well as former Umno President Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad.
For generations, a Malays place poignant preference to their leaders, those who lead as well as a ones elected to turn 'ketua kampung' or 'penghulu'. Anything which comes from a leaders would be deemed right as well as should be respected.
In Umno, it is still very most in practice. Those elected to a higher positions have been seen as a pool of captious which nobody should competition whatever preference which is passed down. The officers around their waist will go around telling a grassroot members which since these people have been elected, they contingency be obeyed.
And for members to give uninformed thought or opinion, they will find themselves being stopped during a officers level, no chance to get any closer to any of a leaders.
Fifty-years after Independence as well as 64 years of Umno, th! is has n ot altered much. While some-more Malays have been becoming professionals - doctors, engineers, lawyers, journalists, pilots, etc - a direct as well as calls for Umno care to i! mprove a celebration as well as a approach, gets louder.
Many have assimilated a party, generally during a 1980s when a nation laid a strong substructure for modernisation. Some done it successfully during various levels of a celebration care - from division heads to State Assemblymen as well as Members of Parliament as well as also as ministers as well as others.
In a present day, if we have been not holding any professional job, we will find it difficult to compete for such celebration positions. You need a small bit of luck, of course.
Part of a reasons since they assimilated Umno is to assistance a tip care delineate a brand brand new proceed as to how they could steer a celebration towards a better direction. While Umno is seen as a celebration to 'tolong Melayu', it also bears a responsibility to assist alternative parties in Barisan Nasional in administering a government.
But since a mid-2005, a series of professionals in Umno has forsaken significantly. While a small left a party, a brand brand new ones chose to turn members of a Opposition. Not which they didn't want to stick upon Umno though their application was rejected.
Dr Mahathir said, Umno local as well as bend leaders should open far-reaching a doorway for professionals as well as intellectuals to stick upon a celebration as well as afterwards field them as possibilities for a ubiquitous election.Umno, he pronounced was facing a dearth of able leaders as a care during a local as well as bend levels were hampering their entry into a party.
For decades Umno has 'not allowed' a smart ones to stick upon a party. That is since most doctors have assimilated PAS. This in conclusion creates it difficult for Umno to find befitting possibilities in ensuring victory in a elections.
Umno contingency practise meritocracy in choosing possibilities to competition in a ubiquitous choosing including from outside a celebration as well as not usually from between a tip leaders in a divisions. Umno needs some-more talented! as well as competent people to form a able government.
However, Umno tip care is still not widely open for good thought as well as positive minds. To some, those perplexing to 'teach' them how to run a celebration have been a ones who would threaten their in front of should their domestic impetus advances.
And there have been leaders who swallow anything given by their subordinates during a State level, with a thought which everything is excellent as well as in order. No need to name them though we think most Umno members as well as those in Putrajaya know who they are.
And just since they hold key in front of in a Cabinet, they dedicate no mistake. When someone tells or points out their mistake, which someone will eventually find himself in a cold storage.
Umno care contingency realise which BN's victory in a ubiquitous choosing was determined together by electorate who were non-Umno members as votes from Umno members alone were not enough to win seats.
The celebration care should realise which they will not be sticking upon to their in front of for life. New leaders will take over when a time comes. And to ensure which a celebration gets good as well as quality leaders, Umno contingency open a doorway widely as well as wisely to a professional Malays.
The leaders contingency be willing to attend to a masses. There have been most who cannot lead a celebration or a government though they acquire a right thought as well as knowledge to compromise vital problems. If we keep upon 'killing these Hang Nadim', Umno would a single day turn irrelevant.
