YOURSAY ‘Does PM Najib Razak really love Umno and the country?’

Quit if you love the party, Umno man tells Najib

Hang Jebat: It really looks like the writing is on the wall for PM Najib Abdul Razak. If he really loves all Malaysians, irrespective of beliefs and creeds, he should emulate Mikhail Gorbachev of Soviet Union.

Najib should remove Malay supremacy and be hailed as a citizen of the world. With falling oil prices, backlash from retention of the Sedition Act and rebellious members from within, just kill them all.

You will never be forgotten, Najib. The world has changed. Change or be swept aside.

Jibtuya C4: It's such a dilemma, on one hand Malaysians generally want Najib to stay on, because this will definitely mean the death of Umno very soon, but on the other hand, if Najib stay on too long, with the death of Umno, it might also mean it's too late to save Malaysia as a whole, because the whole country could be bankrupt by then.

Jamal Jaz: Former PM Dr Mahathir Mohamad, just stop it. Your time has long passed. Batu Kawan Umno division deputy chief Khairuddin Abu Hassan, what is your problem?

Information chief for Pusat Bandar Taman Chempaka Umno branch Syed Rosli Jamalullail, with that kind of attitude you will not be able to gain the support from anyone beside yourself.

This is not the time for Najib to quit.

Pemerhati: If Najib is considered as evil by 51 percent of the electorate, then his replacement, which seems to have been planned and engineered by the extremely autocratic, corrupt and kleptocratic Mahathir, would be a greater evil.

Could a desperate Najib do the unthinkable and do some sort of deal with Opposition Leader Anwar Ibrahim to thwart Mahathir?

Fair Play: Poetic justice or what goes around comes around or both? Also the law of the jungle works this way - only the fittest will survive and can best be exemplified by this.

When the mighty beast is greatly weakened, the other hunters such as the lion, hyena, vulture, jackal and even the timid mouse would be waiting in that order for a piece of the action.

Who knows, maybe even the official driver of the PM might join in the fray. But I wouldn't be surprised if the PM has the final say or the last laugh.

Forgotten Hero: Well, one thing's for sure, the 1Malaysia concept is a very motivational, spirit-raising motto for our country. Through that, I can see that Najib is really dedicated in his work.

Plus, since he has all the experience of what has been going on all these years, I believe that he probably has thousands of ideas on how to improve Malaysia.

The conclusion, good or bad, he is still our elected Malaysia PM. Nobody is perfect in everything.

Man on the Street: The day Najib took over the Umno leadership and PM’s post, the presence of negative liberty was much stronger than positive liberty. Now, the negative liberty is so gigantic around his leadership and he is being drowned by it.

Fateh: This party is an overdue party, with long overdue members, refusing to vacate the seats to the younger generation. All the corrupt leaders/members that have suck the country truly dry.

Now the time has come for Malaysians to feel the pinch of the many years of corruption, coupled with record low crude oil price, devaluation of RM and inflation (due to lowering value of RM).

Ksn: Najib lacks firm leadership to lead Malaysia. But Syed, do you have anybody in mind to succeed Najib? Has Umno Baru any leader with competence and integrity to lead the nation? None.

It is not Najib's lack of leadership which has caused the loss of support for Umno Baru-BN. The downward spiral began by the time the US$44 billion man left, with the country and Umno Baru severely damaged beyond repair.

We need a leader with calibre, integrity, capability to lead Malaysia. There is none in Umno Baru-BN and therefore we have to look outside the party. But no need to worry as Umno Baru-BN will lose the next GE whether Najib is around or not.

Anonymous_3e86: In the first place, does Najib really love Umno and the country? Serious, if he did, he would have done all that he could to wipe out corruption and extremism.

If he loved the country he would have put a stop to all the racist remarks by the likes of extremists Ibrahim Ali, Abdullah Zaik Abdul Rahman and Ridhuan Tee Abdullah.

If he loved the country he would have sacrificed his popularity in Umno to make things right for the rakyat.

Instead, he kept quiet when his own ministers made racist comments. Instead of solving the country's problems, he went abroad for holidays.

If he really loved the country he shouldn't have been PM. In fact, if we love the country we should vote BN out.

Hero325: When the man in the street is behaving like PM, it is doomsday in politics.

Syed Rosli is just an information chief of a branch, not even a branch chief. And he is demanding that PM should quit.
