The UMNO Dynasties Revealed.

An UMNO dynasty is in the making, on the one hand Government is being manipulated by a party (UMNO) and on the other the party is being manipulated by a handful of scoundrels who are making it their own turf.

The top positions in UMNO are theirs for the keeping and so too it will be I guess in the next generation, the surest safeguard against being prosecuted for corrupt practices for a few generations, that is to say the least.

In pole position and going for the Presidency is Najib Tun Razak, going for the Deputy is Muhyiddin Yassin, who is older than Najib. Going by today's standards Najib will not leave the post once there, not Najib for sure so Muhyiddin can expect a DPM's pension if he wins the deputy presidency of UMNO.

The seat of DPM will go to Hishamuddin - Najib's cousin, he is in the race for a VP's slot, he'll keep it patiently for Najib to announce Muhyiddin's successor in the future. Notice how Hishamuddin has the most nominations for Vice Presidency? Muhyiddin himself may have been contemplating the Presidency but did not dare try it, as he was sure the mamak would have sniped at him and got him out for sure.

Following Hishamuddin is the son of the Mamak, Mukhriz Mahathir who will fill Hishamuddin's slot once he gets elevated to DPM, and do not be surprised if Mukhriz does a number on Hishamuddin the same way Mahathir did Hussein Onn.

The only sad thing is that if the sooth sayers are right, the Mamak will leave the scene within two years of Mukhriz ascendancy, (whenever that is) to the Youth post, for the Mamak's sake Mukhriz might as well delay his quest for the post and give it to Khairy this time, but the greed for power will not allow this to happen, as much as I dislike the Mamak I want him to be around a while longer for Anwar to get his day with him.

So the next three Prime Ministers will come from a families whose fathers have been Prime Ministers before, these are the anointed ones, this is typical, its becoming like Indian politics, it is like the Nehru/Ghandi clan, and this country will carry on with a breed who will then look like the leadership of this nation belongs to them, they already feel that way.

The worrying part of this entire ordeal is that the UMNO membership can't actually see through this scheme,or refuse to see it through fear of their own survival in the party which offers so much benefits to cadres, PAS has long seen it, and so too has PKR, the UMNO top layers of the UMNO membership are well fed by this dynastic group that they just decide to allow it to carry on, the same applies to the MCA, MIC and Gerakan.

The East Malaysian Barisan men are in a world of their own, they do not seem to have a semblance of pride, they have not entered the quest to become Prime Ministers of Malaysia, they'll leave it to the minority Bajau or Melanau, the so called Malays of the East, and they have accepted it as their fate I suppose.

Perhaps someday there will come some new UMNO leaders who will see through this scheme, but when will that day come?

Nur Jazlan Mohamed, the only candidate without any baggage has attacked Mahathir, any wonder why he is not being nominated, but it is more because the divisions that dare to nominate him will have to pay a price and they are not prepared for it. The know and fear the Mamak as he awaits, he got rid of a PM what are division and branch heads. Nur Jazlan is serving his last term as a Member of Parliament, adn that is because this young Charted Accountant is good, he is too good to be kept around, he'll spoil the party so they have to get rid of him.

Najib may make an ambassador of Nur Jazalan or make him a director of some UMNO led corporation, it is a shame that good talent instead of being nurtured get wasted, but that is how the dynasties survive.

Now are you still wondering why Mahathir Mohammed just swept aside all young talent in UMNO and why he left the party without any credible leader?

UMNO is finished, get it FINISHED, they will be wiped out of the face of Malaysia, the age of race based politics are are gone and no one needs it anymore with the exception of a few hundred thousand UMNOPUTRAS.
The Malays have condemned the party, they believe in PAS and PKR no more UMNO for them, the Malays have been cheated for fifty years we just cant take anymore.

Another Petra.
