Look in the mirror before taking swipes, Najib

I refer to the article where Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak called Pakatan coalition as being 'anti -national'.

It must come as a shock to those that support Pakatan Rakyat that the PM should construe those aligned to the opposition as 'evil' and 'traitors' to the nation.

Is he to implying that BN is the only legitimate party in this nation?

Let us not forget that BN has governed this nation for 53 years.

Instead of forging closer relations between various races, the present government of BN has caused the nation's races to be more divided than ever.

BN has compromised all our parliamentary institutions to the extent they are no longer competent, transparent and independent.

Najib criticised the PKR electoral voting system by saying that it is flawed. Before saying this, Najib should be aware that his election as the Umno president and subsequently as the PM of this country, was the result of an election executed by 2,000 class F contractors.

He therefore cannot bask in his own glory that his election was done in a perfect and transparent manner.

He later went on to criticise PKR for practising nepotism. He should be circumspect on criticising PKR on this. Did he win the Pekan parliamentary seat on his own ability or was it due to his father's influence? What about his cousin Hishammuddin? Did he not win because of his father's position as a former PM?

Both of them would not be what they are today if not because of nepotism. To date, neither has shown any exemplary qualities to merit being in the position they are in. Based on merit, there are countless other candidates who more worthy than them.

So please be grateful rather than pointing fingers at others.

Najib seems to imply that only BN has the legitimate right claim to Putrajaya, and that all others who aspire to Putrajaya are evil and anti-national.

But he should not forget that it is not his own decision that will determine his reign in Putrajaya.

Only the ones who are given mandate by the people will be given the legitimacy to Putrajaya, and the people will only vote after gauging the performance of these politicians.

His words echo that of a person, and an administration that is desperate to cling to power at all costs.
