The helicopter view approach

Anwar Ibrahim and Azmin Ali whacked me to kingdom come and made all sorts of snide remarks against me during PKR’s annual general assembly in Penang. Azmin had venom is his tone when, during his speech, he looked at me and said that all those who collaborate with Dr Mahathir can take a hike. I detected the smirk on Anwar’s face when Azmin took that swipe at me.

NO HOLDS BARRED

All men can see these tactics whereby I conquer, but what none can see is the strategy out of which victory is evolved.

All warfare is based on deception.

A case of double-speak from Muhyiddin

On one hand, he says Umno-BN is not a racist party,
and on the other hand, he talks about defending
Malay this, Malay that.

Muhyiddin denies Umno is a racist party

Quigonbond: Assuming we take it as truism that Umno is not a racist party, Umno leaves no space for anyone to take their word for it; not when they demonise PKR as a one-cause party and DAP as Chinese/Christian chauvinists. Not when they tolerate the likes of Perkasa and Pembela.

It's okay to say you want to help poor Malays, but you've long crossed the line when you help the rich Malays more, and you even go so far as to threaten blood and mayhem to those who want a little more fairness, in your typical political brinkmanship.

Shafie, Dari Putrajaya Ke Isa?

Oleh : NUR EHSAN MOHD ZAKI

KEHADIRAN 600 Perwakilan dan lebih 2,000 pemerhati UMNO Sabah di Pusat Dagangan Dunia Putera akan memberi impak yang cukup besar kepada Naib Presiden UMNO, Datuk Seri Panglima Mohd Shafie Haji Apdal yang menjadi fokus utama perwakilan sejak Ketua Audit Negara membentangkan laporannya di Parlimen pada 24 November 2011.

Walaupun laporan Ketua Audit Negara 2010 hanya menimbulkan isu remeh dan kecuaian akauntabiliti banyak Kementerian dan Jabatan, namun isu MARA dan Kementerian Kemajuan Luar Bandar dan Wilayah (KKLW), terutama dalam Projek NKRA Bekalan Elektrik Luar Bandar (BELB) menjadi isu prima yang dicanang begitu hebat, bukan sahaja oleh Wakil Pembangkang, malah oleh pemimpin UMNO.
