MUKHRIZ UNDER ATTACK

Mukhriz gets more flak over letter
JITRA: The Kubang Pasu Umno division does not share the views of its committee member Datuk Mukhriz Mahathir who had urged the Prime Minister to step down, division chief Datuk Mohd Johari Baharum said.
He said the contents of the letter was Mukhriz's own opinion.
“The division will continue to support the Prime Minister and his deputy to lead the country,” he told a press conference here yesterday.
It was reported that Mukhriz, who won the Jerlun parliamentary seat, had sent a private letter to Umno president Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi urging him to step down after the poor performance in the general election.
When asked if the division would take action against Mukhriz, Mohd Johari said the division would leave it to the Umno supreme council.
He said Umno members should unite during this hard time and stop blaming the leaders for the election results.
In Kota Kinabalu, Sabah Umno Youth has called on Mukhriz to retract his letter to Abdullah. Its chief Datuk Japlin Akim said Mukhriz's letter to Abdullah was “improper and rude”.
“Initially, Mukhriz supported Abdullah. Then he quietly sends a letter to the Prime Minister asking him to step down,” he said in a statement.
In Kuala Lumpur, Johor Umno Youth chief Razali Ibrahim said the party's Youth wing members should stop making statements in support or against Mukhriz.
“Let the leaders decide on the right thing to do,” he said.

tunku : jo baharom is another hatchet man of abdullah.he said that mukhriz has not done enough in kubang pasu(utusan malaysia).let me ask jo, what you want him to do there where you are the man responsible in kubang pasu as the head not mukhriz? he is just a youth leader in one of the branches.he's not even youth leader of the division.the division is controlled by your soldiers who always make sure he won't get any higher position.mukhriz at national level as the umno youth exco member,heads the international bureau and he has done a very good job and everyone knew about it.
if umno is filled with people like jo, then it's going into destruction era.mukhriz only wrote a letter to pak lah and all the hatchet mans attacks him like he has "wounded" pak lah.

MUKHRIZ – THE MAN-WHO-SPEAKS-TO-THE-SABRE-TOOTH
by nihaz
Wise man said that we must look back at where we come from before we can move forward. This saying is relevant in almost everything that we have to deal with in life.
A doctor would need to know the medical history of his patient before he could provide any treatment.
A teacher would need to learn about the background of her student before she could come out with the most effective way of teaching.
Mankind need to look back far into the history of civilization before they could shape the world like it is today.
I’ve just took my family out to watch 10,000 BC movie last night (just taking a break from the gripping shame for having a PM like Pak Lah). I came to a conclusion that somehow the way the people lived, think and acted back in 10,000 BC were actually not much difference than we do today. For those who haven’t watched the movie - it was about a fight of one man for a girl, that had turned into a fight of numbers of tribes against the so-thought ‘almighty’ Pharaoh who had taken their people by force and 'slaved' them up in his effort to build the pyramid.
The so-thought ‘almighty’ by the people was proved to be just an old, weak and wicked man whom in the end died simply by an ordinary spear made of bones thrown by a brave, young but ordinary man who was only there for the girl. The fight for the girl had led to the fight for what is right.
What made the movie relevant to our time is that the difficulty the man faced in bringing the people together to fight for themselves and for what is right. Being condemned with taboos and believes the people were scared to even think about fighting (Sounds familiar, eh?). Everybody was waiting for ‘the man-who-speaks-to-the-sabre-tooth’ to come along and lead them through the ultimate fight, just like what their wise men told them would happen. (Note: Sabre- tooth is an ancient type tiger which the man helped escaped from a trap).
In the aspect of today’s UMNO, Dato’ Mukhriz has proven that he is the man-who-speaks-to-the-sabre-tooth, but till todate (over a week after the shamefully-won election by BN), the people have not yet believed that the ‘almighty’ President is just an ordinary old, weak man. Therefore, the ending of this fight, will not be as easy as it was in 10,000 years ago Before Christ.
Just like the slaves in the movie, some UMNO people believe that if they fight the ‘almighty’ President then they all would die a painful death (they would lose their position in UMNO and they would just be an ordinary Malaysian citizen till the day they die). They believe that the ‘almighty’ President has the power to condemn and sentence them to hell (exposing all their dirty deeds and being judged by the people if not by the law).
The message from the movie is very much relevant to be applied to UMNO today, that is – those who do not fight, do not win. So, if we all, do not fight for UMNO, we would surely lose - a greater one in the next election.
The movie had shown how the slaves of the Pharaoh were reluctant and skeptical of the whole thing about joining the man’s fight against the ‘almighty’. But the man-who-speaks-to-the-sabre-tooth went through it anyway, knowing only that the few people from the tribes would be with him all the way in fighting the thousands of guards of the so-thought ‘almighty’.
Surely, when the fighting began, the others (the reluctant and skeptical slaves) joined him.
This is a clear message for our man, Dato’ Mukhriz, that is, you don’t have to check your back to see how many people are behind you. The skeptics and the cowards would join you, eventually. They are all just waiting for a leader – A Man-Who-Speaks-To-The-Sabre-Tooth to make a move.
If you think that you’re right, go ahead, push harder and harsher if you have to. I know your father would - even when he thought that he was all alone and that there was not even one tribe behind him.
But even if you are really alone, and you know it is the only right thing to do, do it with faith and do not hesitate, because God is always with you as long as you have faith. And when God is with you, you are actually much stronger than having battalions of army of tribes behind you. I know, I’ve been there quite a few times (of course in a much smaller little tiny scale of crisis in life).
And if you failed, you had actually won because you managed to do the right thing. Doing one right thing is worth a thousand times of failures than doing nothing at all. This is what most Malays or UMNO would never understand and this is why we are no difference from the people back in 10,000 years ago Before Christ.
When someone wanted to fight, or voice out their disagreement, we hold them back, tell them to think it over..and over...and over...and over...............and nothing moved. Then we continue to complain and sigh and cry...and then we repeat the cycle over...and over...and over....again...we tell ourselves that we are being careful and smart by playing it safe. But sometimes, what we really are is total cowards!
It's true that wise man also said that only fools rush in. Well, in our case, fools don't rush in or rush out, they just stay put.
So, Dato’ Mukhriz, believe me, if you do things with good intention and faith, you are never alone. You are the man that we’ve been waiting for – you are The Man Who Speaks To The Sabre Tooth.
The so-thought ‘almighty’ by the people was proved to be just an old, weak and wicked man whom in the end died simply by an ordinary spear made of bones thrown by a brave, young but ordinary man who was only there for the girl. The fight for the girl had led to the fight for what is right.
