Prostitutes-pimps and patriot

Umno’s version of history teaches us that Chin Peng was an enemy of the nation and thus has been banished. The irony of the matter is here is a freedom fighter who gave the best years of his life to the country to expel colonisers and invaders only to find himself being judged and deemed unsuitable and unworthy of returning to his home and to the country for which he put his life on the line.
Instead, we have a cadre of and generation of self-absorbed, over-inflated egos who could never fathom the meaning of the word sacrifice, let alone put their foot forward to genuinely serve the needs of the people, being self-righteous about judging Chin Peng. A man who was in the trenches fighting for our nation is being judged and deprived of his birth-right by some who have acted like political prostitutes by having sold-out the rights of large segments of the citizenry.

These political prostitutes – and the political pimps they have served – have done immeasurable harm to our nation socially, economically, and politically. Nevertheless, they remain empowered to exert the kind of arrogant contempt for one who should rightly be regarded a freedom fighter and a living legend.
Many of these power-obsessed politicians of today, born with a silver kris in their hands and a golden spoon in their mouths, and who wrap themselves up in the garb of a vile and toxic nationalistic rhetoric, lack any comprehension of the meaning of sacrifice for the good of the nation and its people.
