Regarding UMNO election, from http://www.malaysianinsider.com/
Mukhriz son of Mahathir scored 38 nominations to be eligible to be in the run for Youth Chief while it's rival, Khairil Jamaluddin son-in-law of AAB trailing at 19 as of now. One question... since when this two names come into prominence? Before 2002?
For Vice President, we have Hishamuddin son of Hussein Onn leading the numbers now.
For the President, we have Najib son of Razak getting the ONLY nominations.
Notice all the nominees are son of past leaders of the country, if you haven't. Of course, I haven't trace out the extended family connection, e.g. si polan A kahwin ngan si polan B punya adik perempuan dan sebagainya.
you wanna label who's who???
With this dynasty generation stuff, do we need to wonder what is the meaning of transparency, nepotism etc anymore??? I mean it's not a rarity among the countries in the world as we have seen the Lee dynasty down south and also the Kennedy and Bush family but to have such a high number of family related business in politics is really a feat, a kind-of Malaysia Boleh absurdness.
Of course, we do not only see this in UMNO only as you have a fair share of those in PKR with Anwar and Nurul Izzah, Lim Kit Siang and Lim Guan Eng, Lim Keng Yaik and Lim Si Pin, Ong Ka Ting and Ong Ka Chuan but you gotta hand it over to UMNO for this disturbing trend. It's indicative of its patronage and feudalism mentality heavily embedded in all its members mind.
Seriously, we are so short of talent or there's a certain clique of who's who that's hard to penetrate? But having said that, genuine and corruptless players are welcomed but that's definitely not what we are seeing now most of the time.
Come on, even Dynasty stopped its airing ages ago (1989) lah!!!!!!!!!!
and they're running their own "shows" on news everyday, never-ending saga.. VOTE THEM OUT!!
