Umno and 40 Penyamun (bandits)

This is not one news that many Malaysians wish to read. It is like a form of nightmare where 1 Ali Baba is leading 40 penyamun (bandits or thieves) into PPBM (Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia). PPMB is part of Pakatan Harapan (PH), which won the 'mission impossible' on May 9th, 2018. PH is now the ruling coalition of Malaysian government.

These 40 penyamun are from Umno (United Malays National Organisation), the dominant party in the ex-ruling coalition of Malaysia for more than 60 years, which has virtually 'bankrupted' Malaysia with RM1 trillion debts. The highest debt level ever seen by Malaysia.

Malaysians, especially the younger generations, did not vote Umno out of power to see Umno creeping back into power to do what it does best - corruption and abuse of power. They put in time, sweat and money into the general election, GE14, not to see a New Malaysia as a new bottle but the same old dirty water.

With 40 penyamun, PPBM will end up swallowed by Umno and become a Umno 2.0. On the same note, PKR, which is allegedly also courting some Umno members of parliament will be swallowed by Umno too. There is no win politically in the long run as younger Malaysians will reject any form of Umno 2.0. What are PPBM and PKR looking for? Umno's assets? Is that what inspired them to be in power?

Tun Mahathir, Malaysian current prime minister, is deemed a legend for helping the majority of Malaysians to win GE14. If Tun Mahathir accepted the 40 penyamun into PPBM, he would lose all credibility and become another big disappointment in Malaysia.
