I don’t know En. Rohaizat. He may be a fine upstanding citizen. However, his public record of dishonesty would long ago have disqualified him from being a candidate for public office in any normal political party.

Is Umno so short of people that we have to find a lawyer disbarred for financial dishonesty to stand? Has financial misconduct become so common among us that we no longer see it as a factor in a candidate’s suitability? The party leaders who select and screen candidates must have known of this impediment but considered financial misconduct a trivial matter.

Honesty is a minimal condition for public office. Whatever the other virtues of the candidate, he should not be considered if he fails this test. The candidates we field for election must have a clean record because we are asking the public to place their confidence in him as their leader, and democratic government breaks down without public confidence. We are also saying this candidate represents us. I’m sad to have to say such obvious things.

By fielding a disbarred lawyer, today’s Umno is projecting the image that it lives by a different moral code from the rest of Malaysia. One set of rules for Umno, and another for everyone else. Either that, or this is the best we can do.

Bekas Menteri Undang-Undang, Dato' Zaid Ibrahim berkata,

"UMNO-BN merupakan sebuah parti yang tiada masa depan".

Katanya, "UMNO-BN telah membuktikan parti berkenaan tidak menghormati rakyat dengan mengemukakan calonnya Rohaizat Othman yang telah disenarai hitam Majlis Peguam. Kalau tidak layak menjadi peguam, bagaimana beliau mahu menjadi wakil rakyat? Tetapi UMNO kata boleh,” katanya lagi.

DS Najib 1Malaysia:Presiden UMNO


"Saya tahu sebab kenapa kita kalah di Permatang Pasir".

"Kita tahu kenapa kita kalah di Manek Urai, kita tahu siapa pengkhianat. Nama-nama mereka pun ada pada kita. Kita boleh sebut satu persatu mereka yang mengkhianati parti"



Buanasuara:

~Kalau dah tahu kenapa tidak ambil tindakan segera!! Sebat pengkhianat-pengkhianat itu. Jangan jadi penternak dan gembala kepada pengkhianat

~DAN jangan jadikan UMNO tempat bersarangnya Pengkhianat orang Melayu.

~Semua tahu. Itu tahu.Ini tahu. Sana tahu. Sini tahu. Masa pilih calon dulu pun dah tahu. Kalau dah serba-serbi tahu kenapa Rohaizat jadi pilihan??

~Pemimpin tidak boleh jawab terlepas pandang. Setiap kecuaian pemimpin jutaan rakyat akan menderita.

~Atau kerana pentingkan 'kroni' calon haprak pun diketengahkan.

~'Maka kerana malas buat 'homework' Presiden dan Timbalannya UMNO lah yang merancang supaya UMNO dan BN kalah!'.

~Apabila pemimpin itu gagal merancang, sebenarnya mereka telah merancang kearah kegagalan.

Dulu aku rasa UMNO ok.

Kini aku kurang pasti apakah yang sebenarnya mau diselamatkan. Umno sebagai payung Melayu atau sekadar suatu sketsa dongeng di zaman moden.

Atau

Mungkin lebih ideal kita biarkan sahaja Umno berkubur selama-lamanya dan beri peluang kepada para pemimpin lain yang mempunyai konsep perjuangan yang segar tentang kedudukan Melayu.
