Weird

by Invisiblewriter001

Weird itself is a weird word, nothing weirder than a weirdo uttering “weird” to a weird looking man. But what we’re experiencing is nothing weird except it comes every 3 years.

Soon there will be a change in UMNO that will give me a weird feeling. Weird in a way that it’ll present itself in a new manner and form like never before. There’ll be change of guard. New leaders representing a new generation will be taking over. The old retired guards from Mahathir’s era will be joined by the-not-so-old-guards from Pak Lah’s short lived era. It’ll be interesting to see how they compliment each other. But for the sake of Malay unity there won’t be any shoving for seats.

It’ll be a weird feeling. I’m getting a new Prime Minister and Deputy Prime Minister. It’ll be much weirder if Ali Rustam were to win the Deputy President-ship. I can’t see myself having him as the Deputy Prime Minister.

We have a few candidates vying for the post of Laksamana Do Re Mi. They’ll be the Laksamana fighting alongside the ‘sultan’ and the ‘bendahara’. Actually I would love to see Ahmad Ismail the infamous Pendatang vie for this post. During division meeting, Bukit Bendera division sees fit to accord him pahlawan status. They should elevate him to Laksamana status. This is the time to show his ‘kepahlawanan’.

It’s weird that I have 3 candidates contesting the Youth Chief position. Actually the only weird thing is that how a candidate proven guilty for money politics was given a warning and allowed to contest.

In my opinion if someone is guilty, then he’s guilty. There’s no two way about it. But the weird thing, there were 3 different punishments for the same offence.

Anyway it’s their party. They have every right to manage in whatever way they see fit. But they have to remember, whatever decision they make will have dire consequences not only to the party but also to the Malays and the nation as a whole. Everyone is watching them.

Soon we might see a new Wanita chief. We’re so used to Rafidah and suddenly someone might take over from her. And we already got our self a new Deputy Wanita Chief. If the choice is with me, I would’ve chosen Rafidah. At this moment no one come close to her where Wanita is concern. She’s one from Mahathir’s era that I believe can serve for another 10 years. If Najib were t o bring her into the cabinet, please return her to MITI. In this trying time, old hands like her will come in handy.

As for the girls in pink, I don’t know any of them except for Ida Rahayu. She’s the total opposite from any of the candidates. I’ve never seen her in pink. And she’s someone with the most labuh of a tudung (I thought she’s a PAS who entered the wrong hall). And she doesn’t want any minister or deputy minister post. Her only concern is to serve the pink brigade. How can you fought tooth and nail against other candidates, and later refuse a cabinet post. Pretty weird huh?

What about other post like Deputy Youth Chief and Deputy Pink Brigade Chief and Supreme Council? Nope, I’m not interested. They’re the pawns in the higher echelon. They’re important but least significant. I might remember their name but forget who they’re after a few rounds of teh tarik.

Come to think of it. I think I can handle this upcoming weird feeling, as long as it doesn’t come with any nauseating feeling.
