We need to have elections now, Umno man explains why
Umno Supreme Council member Datuk Mohd Razlan Rafii says Umno would be able to form a government with Sarawak to have a two-thirds majority, creating political stability.
He said Umno would be able to form a government with Sarawak to have a two-third majority, creating political stability.
Razlan is confident of BN's majority win in the coming elections due to the coalition's past track record in winning by-elections and state elections, causing Pakatan Harapan (PH) to lick their wounds after defeat in Melaka, Johor and Sarawak state elections.
“The rakyat are ready to vote for us because they know PH failed to keep to their 2018 manifesto promises,” he told Sinar Daily.
“During the 2013 elections, we fulfilled 95 per cent of our manifesto and if we look at the PH government's 22 months of rule, not even 10 per cent of their promises were fulfilled which include creating one million jobs for the people,” he said.
Due to that, he said he is optimistic that the rakyat will vote for Umno this time around.
Razlan further said the country's perception went lower after former prime minister Dr Mahathir Moahamd lead the PH government and made "court cases like run a business, causing courts to became messy."
“So I promise the rakyat that I would look into ensuring the judiciary system is put to the right path,” he said.
Former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak was sentenced to 12 years jail and a fine of RM210 mil for seven charges involving criminal breach of trust (CBT), money laundering and abuse of position, involving SRC funds, totalling RM42mil.
Umno president Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi is facing 47 charges, namely 12 counts of criminal breach of trust in relation to RM31 million of charitable foundation Yayasan Akalbudi’s funds, 27 counts of money-laundering, and eight counts of bribery charges.
