Another UMNO Idiot

Zahid the kononnya Minister of Defence recently said that the Non-Bumis are less patriotic and that is the reason why they make up lower number of personnel's. Later the idiot minister denied questioning the loyalty and integrity of the non-Malays and instead defended that his parliamentary reply stated that the “sense patriotism is not strong enough”.

Anyway some comments in Malaysiakini for your reading pleasure:

Anonymous Ahmad Zahid is just being Racist when he intentionally used that Phrase in his reply in Parliament. He was trying to score political Brownies not realising that it will ruffle feathers across the Divide. This irresponsible Action of Ahmad Zahid should be reprimanded by the Prime Minister.

Gerard Samuel Vijayan: The reasons why Chinese, Indians and non-Muslim bumiputeras from Sabah and Sarawak shun the armed forces are two fold: (a) no prospect of promotion based on merit, experience, ability and competence unless you convert to being a Muslim and be classified as a Malay and (b) the reluctance of the Malay/Muslim majority rank and file to serve under a non-Malay/Muslim commanding officer thanks to the indoctrination by UMNO/BN and the BTN of the armed forces with the "Ketuanan Melayu" racist ideology which renders non-Malays/Muslims as the enemy. The fact that the Royal Malay Regiment has more battalions then the Royal Rangers Regiment only points to the insecurity of the Malay/Muslim majority, and the military establishment's insistence that political and operational command over the armed forces be in Malay/Muslim hands since 1969 has ensured that the armed forces of Malaysia is Malay/Muslim dominated although they only make up 52% of the present population.

KETUA KAMPUNG The Ministry of Defence is one of the most corrupted ministries. Zahid should talk less and put his house in order first. Zahid has also tried to make himself a hero as Penang UMNO chief but again and again he had proved himself to be an empty vassel.
