| 2005-06-08 | PAS Muktamar: Proof of the pudding is in the eating UMNO, as usual, is at a loss for words. The UMNO deputy president (and
Malaysian deputy prime minister), Dato' Seri Najib Tun Razak, could
only call on Malays to be wary of PAS for it aims to split them,
ignoring the harsh reality that UMNO it is which splits the Malays
with its lurch into Islamic politics to counter PAS's growing
influence and walking away from its leadership of the cultural Malay,
to whom Islam is an important part of his being, to Islam being more
important than his cultural heritage. It took this line, as usual
without thought, because the Malay deserted to PAS and its Islamic
message when UMNO got so caught up in the desire to retain control
that it forgot those who voted them in. The revolution and
reformation in UMNO is a long way ahead, but it believes there is no
need for that so long as there is Dato' Abdullah Ahmad Badawi and
Islam Hadhari to succour the people. One need not add, that before
him UMNO laid its whole future in the hands of Tun Mahathir Mohamed
and his skewed modernisation plans for 22 years. As his would be when
his successor takes office.

| 2005-05-25 | The silly season in UMNO puts non-Malays and non-Muslims in fear For this lurch into racist and irreligious rants ignore a larger
problem the BN faces. UMNO espoused Islam as its main plank, with
Islam Hadhari at its centre, because Malays who would normally join
the party do not; instead they go to PAS, Parti Keadilan Rakyat, or
multiracial parties like the DAP. This coincides with the general
belief in the Malay ground that the BN promises since UMNO's founding
in 1946 has transformed them into an underclass in their own country.
They are unemployable, inward looking, arrogant, mis-matched, poorly
educated, that nearly 80,000 graduates cannot find work. Another
10,000 join them every year. The degree is seen as an end in itself.
When excellence and high standards should have been the focus of
Malaysian universities, the aim quickly became to pass every Malay
who went through their portals.

| 2005-05-24 | Islamic policies as an antidote to political failures A steady stream of Muslims and Malays join PAS, either deserters from
UMNO or new members, which frightens UMNO and BN. UMNO then reacted
to embrace Islam as its political vehicle for no reason than to deny
PAS its recruits and its Islamic credentials. It did not succeed. To
Islamisation as official policy is added Islam Hadhari, the
hare-brained concept of civilisational Islam, which is now toted as
what Islam should be for no reason than to build the prime minister,
Dato' Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi, as the progenitor and leader of
this wave. But it falls by the wayside, for few, if any, know what it
is. Expensive two-day courses are conducted for all and sundry to
understand it, yet no one know what it is. It has become a convenient
shorthand to counter PAS's fundementalist Islamic creed. When UMNO
and BN find that tough going, it tries to outdo PAS by official rules
as what Dr Abdullah Mohamed Zin announced on 17 May 2005.

| 2005-04-27 | The clash of the UMNO pygmies He should have acted decisively from the start, reshuffled his
cabinet, behave as to the manor born. Instead, he retained the tired
Mahathir cabinet, could not make up his mind, cocooned himself with
untested advisers and a nepotic cabal. His vision of Islam Hadhari is
shot to pieces: several of his key aides have been caught red handed
for khalwat, but are kept on, often at more powerful positions. His
promises to bring the corrupt to justice is forgotten. He has not
moved into his official residence; whatever the reason, it is viewed,
and believed, as a deliberate attempt to deny his deputy an official
residence. The two wives, besides, do not get along.
