Another turncoat defects to UMNO

PKR almost made a big blunder by selecting PKR Division treasurer Dr Halili Rahmat as the candidate to contest the Hulu selangor parliamentary seat.One can easily see the ramification of Dr. Halili being selected and consequently winning the by-election on a PKR ticket.If he can leave PKR and join UMNO just because he was not selected to be the candidate what more if he was elected and for some frivolous reasons he could similarly hopped over to UMNO under the most silly pretext.

Once again, we witness the true motives of some PKR members who joined the party to only fight for their own personal cause and not to fight for the party's cause.Not only were they not satisfied to merely leave the party but they were so vindictive to the extent of causing maximum harm to the PKR's chance of winning the bye-election by declaring their support for UMNO.

It certainly augurs well for PKR that it has now seen the true colour of Dr. Halili who was given not once but two opportunities to contest as a candidate for PKR in the 2004 and 2008 elections and who on both ocassions lost to the B.N candidates.It was in a way poetic justice that he did not win any of the seats he contested or he would have been also one of the 'frogs' who would have jumped to the B.N fold.
