About 60 members of the Ampang Umno division today gathered in the KL city centre in support of the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) and the police.The protest was led by division chief Ismail Kijo.
Also present were members from the Umno divisions in Pandan and Gombak.
Ismail said the MACC and the police should be allowed to continue to investigate Pakatan Rakyat leaders for corruption.
He also warned the people not to politicise the death of Teoh Beng Hock at the MACC building.
"Don't exploit his death and don't evoke racial sentiments," he warned.
Why I shall not be accepting Zaid’s offer

Excerpt
I am under no illusions that Umno is bound for destruction on its present course. Neither do I hold unrealistic expectations about the possibility of reform when the rot has gone so deep.
I am the last person to entertain illusions about the ease of reforming Umno. The party that I joined half a century ago as an idealistic young man has indeed lost its soul. It has become corrupt, this corruption has weakened it, and as it grows weaker it is tempted more and more to fan racial feeling and abuse public institutions to maintain power. This is a death spiral.
The Malay cause was not premised on an eternal zero sum game between the native and the immigrant. We meant to build a nation united by a prosperous, confident and enlightened Malay community, not a permanent state of divide and rule by political lowlife. We meant to foster Malay leadership worthy of national leadership, and we looked to our common future as Malaysia rather than to our past as people accidentally brought together by colonial history.
Our major public institutions and our political system have degenerated to the point that the public no longer trusts them. A democratic system of government cannot function below a certain threshhold of public confidence. The suspicious death of Teoh Beng Hock under the custody of a watchdog body reporting directly to a prime minister who has his own public confidence issues may have pushed us below that threshhold.
What we must do now goes beyond political parties. We need the rakyat to rise up to claim their institutions, and demand that our public institutions are answerable to them. We must wake up to our sovereignty as citizens, reclaim the constitution which constitutes us as a nation and guarantees our rights, and demand a comprehensively reformed government to restore public confidence. We must do this before it is too late.

Tok Nik Aziz nails on the bullseye. umn* looks like communist party, sounds like communist party, indeed. And don't forget, China communist leader Mao cultural revolution send the people back at least 200 years.
Umn* are not bad, they freeze Malay culture evolution for 50 years.

For TRH statement, it can be summarised in one sentence :
Dear Zaid, my man need to cari makan inside umn*.
"Don't exploit his death and don't evoke racial sentiments," he warned."

Smell his own ass and kiss his own ass. Encik S46, another bullshit liar!
Malaysia has indeed joined the ranks of countries such as Pakistan & Afghanistan in the "Club of Doom"
Read Syed Akbar Ali's "Malaysia & The Club of Doom ~ The Collapse of the Islamic Countries"

Fact is Tengku Razaleigh is still a politician, just take it with a pinch of salt
I was waitng for some stoooppid UMNO flers to come out to protest..and i was right. I can say even if their own family is wronged by MACC, they will still support MACC.
Moronic idiots.....
GOT TO SHOW MORAL SUPPORT FOR FAT BOY... CARI MAKAN, BEB!
Protracted colonial thinking in these people...
Mat Umno....
can they even think?
The little that is left of their brain is sitting in the southern exit waiting to be excreted when they visit the toilet.
It is right for UMNO to support the MACC...
...to investigate what action has been taken on Kugan death
...RM24 million palace in Shah Alam belonging to UMNO guy
...the circumstances why Venturepharm was given construction contract, etc.....
MACC should hold an inquiry why UMNO people do not have the ability (that only PR people appear to have)to fall down from tall Govt building. May be UMNO people have less brains. Call in the pawangs and the bomohs to fix this now, I say!
