Salam Rafizi...

By Mohamadon Abdullah

My simple and humble message to Rafizi Ramli and his Team.

Salam Rafizi. The British when they Colonized Malaya, Sabah and Sarawak (apart from other Countries like India, Burma etc. to form the British Empire), their Main Objective was basically to harvest/exploit/plunder the Richness of the Countries they colonized….for the Benefits of Great Britain.

In Malaya, the Spirit of Nationalism among the Malays came about after the Japanese Occupation (inspired by the Indonesian and the Indian Independent Movements) Almarhom Dato Onn Jaafar established UMNO (United Malay National Organization) and successfully defeated the establishment of the Malayan Union. Unfortunately for Almarhom Dato Onn Jaafar, his idea to rename UMNO to United Malayan National Organization and admit the Non Malays residing in Malaya then, was rejected by other Prominent Malay Leaders in UMNO. Consequently, Almarhom Dato Onn Jaafar left UMNO and form Parti Negara.

UMNO was deregistered during Dr. Mahathir’s Premiership and Dr. Mahathir formed a new Party and name it as UMNO Baru. Like the British, the Political Parasitic Elites of UMNO Baru, plundered the Wealth of the Nation from PETRONAS, FELDA, LTH, MARA, 1MDB, KWAP etc. through Corruption and Power Abuse for their Personal Agenda of Personal/Family material gains .

Just drawing the parallel/similarity between the British Colonialist and UMNO Baru.

To me, you represent the Good Values and Foresight of Almarhom Dato Onn Jaafar in Nation Building. You have the Intellect, the Charisma, the Youthful Ideals to lead Gen.Y and thereafter, with the support of your Team for the betterment of our Nation. PRU 15 is very critical for the future of Gen.Y and thereafter. Treat it as a Fight for Independence from UMNO Baru/BN and Perang Badr.

I am not a good Orator/Communicator like you, but may I humbly suggest you articulate this Narrative to inspire the Rakyat, especially the Youths, to embrace Patriotism with Passion and Commitment, like what our self-sacrificing Forefathers did when they Fought for Independence from the British. History has a way of repeating itself.
