(The Star) - Umno will fight to the last drop of blood to protect Malay rights, the status of the Malay Rulers, Bahasa Melayu and Islam as these matters are enshrined in the Constitution.
Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin said they would also fight to defend the rights of other races to ensure no one community would be oppressed. He said the Malays should not compromise on these matters and urged all Malays including those living in Cherok Tuk Kun, to unite in protecting for their rights. “I mention Cherok Tuk Kun in Penang because of Pakatan Rakyat leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim who has sold his principles for politics sake. “He is a friend but due to politics, he is willing to destroy Malay unity, the Malay rights and even wants to bring the Malayan Communist Party leader Chin Peng back,” he said when opening a programme with younger generation (Perwaris) in Kampung Jayor here Saturday. Munyiddin said thousands of Malays were killed by the communist rebels under Chin Peng but Anwar supported for the communist leader to return to the country. He said the younger generation Malays, especially those in the universities, should not believe such a man would protect the rights of the Malays. Earlier, he told Pagoh MCA division members that Barisan leaders at all levels should adopt a new approach in all political aspects to regain the confidence of Chinese voters. He said the new solidarity concept approach could rejuvenate the fighting spirit of not only Umno members, but all component party members in Barisan. He said the old unity and power-sharing concept that had brought development, growth, peace and stability in the country was now taken for granted. He said that due to this they were made to believe the opposition parties could bring better things and supported the oppositions in the 12th general election. He said the election also showed that the Malays had stopped supporting Umno, the Chinese were not supporting the MCA and Gerakan and the Indians were not supporting MIC and PPP. He said the component parties had their own political problems while trying to resolve both internal and national issues and this made the people think they were split and weak. “The matter was made worse when we in Barisan did not speak in one voice but in different voices when talking to different groups of people about certain national issues. “We want to change all these and I have discussed with Barisan leaders who agreed for the new solidarity concept approach,” he said. “We in Barisan must be seen united and if there is any issue related with policies or the Constitution, we must speak as one to defend the policies or the constitutions,” he added.
