Hishammuddin urged to quit over keris issue


MUAR: Many Umno branch and divisional leaders here want Umno Youth chief Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Tun Hussein to resign over the keris issue which they said had adversely affected Barisan Nasional in the recent general election.
Datuk Kadar Shah Tun Sulaiman Ninam Shah said about 90 branch and 25 divisional leaders made the call Sunday after Hishammuddin had admitted the keris issue was among the causes of Barisan's poor performance in the March 8 polls.
To admit the mistake was not good enough, he said, if the Youth chief did not take responsibility and resign from all party and government posts.
Kadar Shah said that having a Cabinet minister for several terms, Hishammuddin should be mature enough to know what a leader should do, and should have known that brandishing the keris could hurt the feelings of other races.
He said branch and division committee members, including former Sungai Balang assemblyman Zakariah Mahadi, wanted Hishammuddin to gracefully resign from all party and government posts.

tunku : i think we should not demand or ask hisham to quit or resign as he had said that he won't defend the ketua pemuda post in the coming umno's election. so there is no need for him to resign at this point of time.we don't want kj to be the acting head right now.

Hisham's political success is only because of his father, a former premier. The same goes to Najib. If their fathers were not an ex-PM, they would have been nobody in Umno. These 2 guys only rest on their fathers' laurels, nothing else.
