Outgoing Umno Youth chief Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Hussein:

Struggle continues I’m aware that there are all sorts of text messages and poison-pen letters being circulated to attack my character but I leave it to God to judge. I will never betray the struggle which we inherited from my grandfather and father. I will never betray the Malay struggle.” To these irresponsible people, don’t ever attempt to take advantage of the situation to show off courage and to ramble under the immunity provided by the Dewan Rakyat and make wild allegations.” Wanita Umno chief Tan Sri Rafidah Aziz:

Total makeover A change in branding, labelling and presentation alone is not enough as the content and product itself needs to be re-evaluated by the leaders.” Party posts are up for auction (at every election) to those who are willing to pay. But there are still many Umno members who uphold integrity and trust … how long more will such members last before they too succumb to the pressure?” Only if we win can we fulfil the hopes and aspirations of the Malays and implement the policies that can integrate the Malays and bumiputras into mainstream development.”
