That must have been the strongest title ever. I know Pak Lah saved my bacon and that of my North Pole team mates when Anwar and his people abandoned us at the mercy of the Russian mafia back in 1998, it was at the then-Ambassador to Russia’s office that we sought the help of Pak Lah, whom I used to regard as my ‘Jack Ryan’, after Tom Clancy’s alter ego in his novel “Clear And Present Danger.”
When he spoke out against Al Gore’s coarseness and rudeness during the APEC meeting, everyone supporting the BN then thought he was the man for the DPM’s job.
Pak Lah was with my father (who was the police’s representative) in the National Operations Council together with former Chief of Armed Forces, Tan Sri Ghazali Che Mat, and Professor Emeritus Datuk Dr Khoo Kay Kim, in helping the late Tun Abdul Razak bring peace back and Malaysians together after the 13th May tragedy that we all so want to put behind.
However, the Pak Lah that I have written about above, is no longer there. The person I see now is a person metamorphosised into a giant monster bug bent on eating everything in its path.
UMNO was formed because of several things:
FASAL 3
ASAS DAN TUJUAN
UMNO adalah sebuah parti politik yang berjuang mendukung cita-cita
kebangsaan Melayu demi mengekalkan maruh dan martabat bangsa, agama
dan negara.3.1 Mempertahankan kemerdekaan dan kedaulatan negara.
3.2 Mendukung dan mempertahankan Perlembagaan Negara, Perlembagaan
Negeri-negeri dan Raja Berpelembagaan.3.3 Menegak, mempertahan dan mengembangkan Islam, agama rasmi
negara serta menghormati prinsip kebangsaan beragama.3.4 Mempertahankan kedaulatan rakyat dan keadilan sosial dengan
mengamalkan Sistem Pemerintahan Demokrasi Berparlimen serta
memajukan ekonomi rakyat Melayu dan Bumiputera khasnya dan rakyat
Malaysia amnya.3.5 Menjamin kedudukan Bahasa Kebangsaan (Bahasa Melayu) sebagai
bahasa rasmi yang tunggal dan Kebudayaan Kebangsaan yang berteraskan
Kebudayaan Melayu.3.6 Mewujudkan kerjasama antara kaum bagi melahirkan satu bangsa
Malaysia yang kuat dan bersatu berasaskan kepada hak-hak Asasi
Manusia dan Hak-Hak Istimewa Orang Melayu dan Bumiputera.
If Para 3.2 is the spirit behind the formation of UMNO, then Pak Lah should know that he is going against the Federal, States and party constitutions. This goes to the same people who put out a banner in protest of the appointment of Ahmad Said as the Menteri Besar of Terengganu saying, “KAMI MAHU IDRIS, NATANG” (We want Idris, Animals). Who are these “Animals” that they were referring to? The palace institution? Someone in Terengganu ought to have lodged a police report for lèse majesté and maybe see if that applies to Pak Lah as well. A copy of this report should also be forwarded to Hishamuddin and his dark-skinned deputy, and tell them this is the time to draw out the keris and start poking it into the anus of the traitors of the Malay cause.
Why am I so uptight about this?
Although I am an UMNO member, I am first and foremost still an officer holding the King’s Commission; therefore I am still a soldier although I have completed my duration of service. My loyalty has always been to the Palace Institution bar any extreme irregularities that may or may have been committed by any of its members. I am not loyal to any political person(s) as those serving the country in political posts were voted in by the people to represent them in managing the country. In short, the people (rakyat) are the bosses and ministers are just our servants. When our housemaid do not perform, we fire them.
As someone mentioned to me last night, “That idea of yours of a military coup seems palatable now.”
