A video is making its rounds on social media, depicting Barisan Nasional (BN) chairman Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi laughing and mocking the possibility of other BN leaders being charged if Pakatan Harapan forms the next government.
We have heard all the allegations of misappropriation of funds, but what is shocking is that Zahid openly says various BN leaders would be charged, giving the impression that he is aware of these “crimes”.
Zahid mocking his fellow BN leaders and they laughing along to him, also gives the impression that the judiciary is not free and is manipulated by those in power.
This is a dangerous insinuation.
What is equally as bad are all these leaders laughing along to Zahid’s allegations. Is this admission? Or was this a threat by Zahid to toe the line?
Will these leaders who were named by Zahid come forth and refute these allegations? Or will they rebuke their president for this tasteless speech? Malaysians are watching.
Will we see the return of the old, if they take power and Zahid is our next Prime Minister. He is after all the president of Umno, and the likely PM candidate if BN wins.
Zahid mentions Tok Mat (BN Deputy Chairman Datuk Seri Mohamad Hasan MIC president S.A. Vigneswaran, MCA president Datuk Seri Wee Ka Siong will all be charged.
Zahid, shamelessly dismisses the outstanding criminal case he has in court. 47 charges of criminal breach of trust, graft and money laundering which relate to funds belonging to the charitable organisation Yayasan Akalbudi, is no laughing matter.
Which is why, voting for BN, according to Zahid’s logic, will set criminals free.
Dissolving Parliament and calling for General elections is all about saving and dropping the criminal cases against Zahid. Is this what Malaysian s want?
Don’t allow UMNO BN to take us for a ride and give their leaders impunity from criminal charges.
We have to vote them out once and for all.
Its incumbent on all voters to come in full force to prevent BN from coming back to power.
