Nazri's Malaysian First

“I’m Malaysian first and malay second, does any bigot have a problem”. The remark is short and sweet. it is nice to hear it from an Umno Minister. Anyway, I just want to enhance Nazri's statement. Non-bigot will not have a problem with Malaysia first. In other words, there are bigots around. The most prominent and shameless bigot is Muhyiddin Yasin, our non-performer Deputy PM.

But if we see it from another perspective, is Nazri here to challenge Muhyiddin's? If this is the case, Nazri’s political life will end if Muhyiddin takes over the premiership from Najib in future.

Lets go back to Nazri's remarks. Eventhough people sing & praise Nazri but I’m still skeptical with the things mentioned by any Umno leader even though it makes absolute sense. Don’t forget, Nazri was not like that before. Nazri was only made more sensible remarks after apa nama Mamak stepped down.

Khairy is also another Umno leader who may sometimes say something sensible. So, why does Nazri need to say these sensible things? Why should he offends the cowardly Awang Selamat gang and the apa nama ex-PM? One of the reasons for Nazri to do that is for his political survival. His view will earn him a place should PR takes over Putrajaya in the next GE. But, at least, Nazri is not wishy washy like the PM in the 1Malaysia concept.

Nazri, I support when you sheild your boss from TDM’s attack. As I mentioned before, people see TDM as the one contributed to the Malaysia development was because he was at the right place and in the right time. If Tengku Razaleigh was the one who took over from Tun Hussein Onn, he could have done the same or even better. TDM also did a lot of harms to Malaysia during his time (please read the book called “The Maverick Malaysian” by Barry Wain). Our country was rich in resources. TDM could have made use of the country's resources properly when he was in charged, not as if Malaysia's money is his own piggy bank. So, do not only remember TDM for the Penang Bridge, Twin Towers and KLIA as there are more underexposed scandals behind the beautiful "success" stories.

What I suggest is for Nazri to challence Muhyiddin for the Deputy President post in the next Umno party election. Should the Umno members decide drop him, then it is better for Nazri to quit Umno earlier.
