The politics of UMNO is getting more and more ludicrous, it is not that they are losing power but the upheaval against the present Prime Minister Dato Seri Abdullah is bordering on lunacy! He has announce he is standing for election and ask all UMNO members to support his candidacy and his plan on his retirement in 2010. The grassroot members I don't think would follow suit. Yet to highlight the detachment between the leaders in UMNO and his members is clearly shown in the press statement made.

Penang UMNO is one sad case. Below is a comment I made on a blog run by my junior who is a strong party supporter and a private doctor in Penang.

Dr Novandri

Since you are a member of UMNO penang kindly enlighten me masa press conference Penang UMNO macam mana Datuk Ahmad Ibrahim ada di situ duduk satu meja dengan ketua bahagian yang lain? Bukankah dia telah di gantung keahliannya? Kalau nak datang sebagai observer takpa tapi tak boleh duduk semeja waktu press conference kerana itu mewakili ketua ketua bahagian lepastu boloeh le? Apasal Penang UMNO tak mahu ikut arahan MT ni? Depa besak sangatkah? Tentang Pak Lah punya usul terus nak ikut pa nie?Ini lah penyakit Penang UMNO yang saya lihat masih terus dibelengui oleh warlord2 yang menjahanamkan UMNO, maafye pls forward this thing to Datuk Azhar(Uncle Bob) kata tot tegurni!

Salam wan zaharizan,

Saya pun tidak faham dengan perangai sesetengah pemimpin2 UMNO di Penang ni.

Mungkin mereka sudah terlalu lama di sana dan perlu diundurkan sama ada secara terhormat atau pun undi ahli-ahli UMNO.
