EC Deputy claims he is not an UMNO member
by Terence Netto@www.malaysiakini.com
COMMENT Are you saying a opening fool around in a Najib Razak Administration's pattern of 'feint-and-pass' in a assertion by a Election Commission's Deputy Chair that he has never been an UMNO member?
Students of this pattern would have remarkable that when a administration department is under intense pressure, it feints, similar to a rugby player, in a citation of remodel before slipping a ball to a fill-in who will then ensue to contend a standing quo, with minor trimmings. Thus primed, observers of a 'feint-and-pass' maneuver ought to be heedful of a ultimate turn to a saga of Wan Ahmad Wan Omar's membership in UMNO.
Yesterday, he denied he had ever been a part of after he had final week behaved similar to a guilty party, astounded when it was referred to that he is a part of in benefit of a Pasir Mas multiplication of UMNO in Kelantan.
A similar rejection is not forthcoming from a EC chair Abdul Aziz Mohd Yusof (right) who final week was also exposed as a part of of a Ampang multiplication of a party.
Both disclosures broken solely to Dr Mahathir Mohamad who plays by a rules of a Florentine domestic scientist of a 16th century their bona fides as impartial referees tasked with using of a EC. This could well meant that if public vigour intensifies for Abdul Aziz as well as Wan Ahmad to renounce upon account of they being members of UMNO, a government will feint in a citation of appeasing renouned direct by permitting a Chief to renounce as well as will pass a buck to his Deputy whose rejection he had ever! been a part of serves as cover for his graduation to a Chief's post where he will radically contend a standing quo.
This gambit of 'feint-and-pass' has thus distant noted a pattern of a Najib Administration's reply to renouned vigour for shift as well as reform. When public vigour for shift wells up from a deep, a administration department shapes its rhetoric to sound similar to it is not averse to shift as well as would before long be ringing it in.But when a substance of a affianced shift is exposed as counterfeit, a Administration not only battens down a hatches as well as though gives a nuts as well as bolts of repression an additional devious twist. Thus observers of a 'feint-and-pass' expedient ought to be alert to pierce that might soon follow hard upon a EC deputy chair's rejection that he is an UMNO member.
Membership brokers
When final week it was referred to he is an Umno member, Wan Ahmad reacted in a time honoured conform of those who have been caught with their pants down by berating a dispatcher of a bad news, in this box a PKR cabinet part of ubiquitous Saifuddin Nasution. It's not customarily a box that people elect to turn members of a domestic celebration as well as then forget they have done so.
Enlisting in a domestic celebration is not a infrequent decision similar to selecting to fool around a round of golf or though a span of shoes. It's a pierce that a thoroughfare of time might entrust to a recesses of one's mental recall though it's not something one forgets without a trace.
True, domestic parties have been no strangers to a exertions of membership brokers, skilful at collecting photocopies of temperament cards of a gullible to proposal to celebration secretariats as justification that a brokers have gained for a celebration brand brand new members by a scores.
The signatures of a brand brand new recruits upon membership profits have been all a make a difference a attorney will prepare to acquire in due time, charity a customary excuses as to why a brand brand new members can't themselves come up to a offices to pointer a receipts: miss of time as well as busyness with work.
This is a modus operandi of membership brokers when they out to strengthen their claims to graduation in a local as well as state celebration hierarchies of a celebration they have inaugurated to join as well as in that they enterprise to turn upwardly mobile. The vicious bit here is that these brokers target their brand brand new part of canvassing drive at a gullible as well as a nave who do not unequivocally know what a brokers have been unequivocally up to when asked to hand over their temperament documents for photocopying.
The gullible can simply be inveigled into momentarily surrendering their personal documents; a educated as well as aware have been not simply bamboozled.
Same name, opposite person
Thus when final week it referred to to Abdul Aziz as well as Wan Ahmad that they were members of UMNO, they spoke vaguely of carrying been beguiled into joining by something that looked similar to a tactics of 'membership brokers'. But as members of educated class, this forgive can simply be discounted; they could not have joined involuntarily.
However, now that Wan Ahmad has come out in strong rejection that he had ever been a part of of a Pasir Mas division, even up to contending that he is from Terengganu as well as not Kelantan, a approach appears open for him to be defended in a EC, possibly as replacement for Abdul Aziz who might have to be sa! crificed , in partial appeasement of renouned pressure.
Wan Ahmad claims that a chairman with a name similar to his had enlisted in a Pasir Mas multiplication of UMNOno, adding a bit of his not carrying originated from Kelantan as serve explanation of his assertion he had never been an UMNO member. It's odd he did not contend all this at first blush, that ought to have been a box since a act of joining a domestic celebration is not a infrequent step, just as selecting not to join is not simply forgotten.
As matters emanate as well as twist, a only constant seasoned observers can expect is 'feint-and-pass', a tactic to bamboozle a movement for reform.
