Rudyard Kipling"
“When you're left wounded on Afganistan's plains and
the women come out to cut up what remains, Just roll to your rifle
and blow out your brains,
And go to your God like a soldier”
General Douglas MacArthur"
“We are not retreating. We are advancing in another direction.”
“It is fatal to enter any war without the will to win it.” “Old soldiers never die; they just fade away.
“The soldier, above all other people, prays for peace, for he must suffer and be the deepest wounds and scars of war.”
“May God have mercy upon my enemies, because I won't .” “The object of war is not to die for your country but to make the other bastard die for his.
“Nobody ever defended, there is only attack and attack and attack some more.
“It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather we should thank God that such men lived.
The Soldier stood and faced God
Which must always come to pass
He hoped his shoes were shining
Just as bright as his brass
"Step forward you Soldier,
How shall I deal with you?
Have you always turned the other cheek?
To My Church have you been true?"
"No, Lord, I guess I ain't
Because those of us who carry guns
Can't always be a saint."
I've had to work on Sundays
And at times my talk was tough,
And sometimes I've been violent,
Because the world is awfully rough.
But, I never took a penny
That wasn't mine to keep.
Though I worked a lot of overtime
When the bills got just too steep,
The Soldier squared his shoulders and said
And I never passed a cry for help
Though at times I shook with fear,
And sometimes, God forgive me,
I've wept unmanly tears.
I know I don't deserve a place
Among the people here.
They never wanted me around
Except to calm their fears.
If you've a place for me here,
Lord, It needn't be so grand,
I never expected or had too much,
But if you don't, I'll understand."
There was silence all around the throne
Where the saints had often trod
As the Soldier waited quietly,
For the judgment of his God.
"Step forward now, you Soldier,
You've borne your burden well.
Walk peacefully on Heaven's streets,
You've done your time in Hell."
UMNO is hard pressed and has a dearth of honest men and women

Malaysiakini : Noraini defeats Shahrizat, retains Umno Wanita chief post By Haspaizi Zain. Incumbent Wanita Umno chief Noraini Ahmad has managed to defend her
post in the party election, according to unofficial vote counts,
defeating her contender Shahrizat Abdul Jalil.
After taking a
substantial lead against Shahrizat last night, the Parit Sulong MP
garnered more than half of the 189 Wanita Umno divisions’ votes
nationwide. Unofficial results received this morning showed that Noraini (above, left) received some 106 votes against Shahrizat’s 70, thus denying the latter’s attempt to make a comeback.
Noraini also thanked her supporters in a Facebook post this morning. “Thank you so much to all Wanita Umno members nationwide and all my
friends, who have been with me through thick and thin, for your support
and trust in me as the Wanita Umno chief. “Let’s work together to empower Wanita to a higher level!” she said.
Last night, Malaysiakini
reported that Noraini and Shahrizat, the latter a former Wanita Umno
chief, were in an intense fight for the women’s wing’s top post. As of midnight, Noraini obtained 56 votes while Shahrizat garnered 35. Noraini has held the top position since 2018, while her predecessor Shahrizat was Wanita Umno’s chief from 2009 to 2018.
The two contenders sought the 96 votes required to win simple majority support. Umno is expected to release the official results for its Wanita, Youth, and Puteri wings elections today.
just an ordinary guy : Shameless for Sharizat to try for the post given what’s happened with the NFC. The fact that she even got 76 or whatever votes is also telling of the culture within a large portion UMNO. The message it is sending is: corruption is OK. While right-minded people understand having Zahid as DPM is a necessary evil, having another scandal-ridden member in a top post does nothing except damage the party even more. Good for UMNO she didn’t win.
Tongkat Tongkat all these while but still claiming being backward : against Shahrizat 70, thus denying the latter's attempt to make a comeback.
worrying 70 thought that sharizat will be good to come backk
looks like the various party has no problem with reputation and all the taxpayr money scandal
Chewing Gum : Thank God for that ! If Shahrizat had won, it would be a big embarrassment for progressive Malaysians..
Mechi : Umno can only be rehabilitated if everyone in the party is on the same page on corruption. It smells of xhit now. It is now due to Umno that the Malay dream is to be a politican in order to be a multi millionaire or billionaire.
Instead of obtaining skills & competencies they dream of being in a manipulative job & exploit the nation's weaknesses in helping Bumis by grabbing anything & leave little for their needy Malays who deserve more.
