Fed up with the 'lame duck' label slapped on Umno by PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang, the Malay party's chief Ahmad Zahid Hamidi has suggested that the latter switch profession from politician to zoologist.
Clearly unhappy with the title, the Umno president said they were not animals as Hadi (above, right) had mentioned recently.
"I followed a lot of the leader's interviews and speeches. There were a lot of animal-related allusions (used).
"I think it's good that he has changed his profession from politician to zoologist," Zahid said cynically.
He said this while speaking at the launch of the BN machinery at the EduCity Sports Complex Indoor Stadium, Iskandar Puteri, Johor last night.
The launch was also broadcast live through social media platforms.
Also present was Umno deputy president Mohamad Hasan.
On Jan 28, Hadi expressed his displeasure with Umno, which he said was in dire straits and like a duck with a broken leg after losing the last general election.
Hadi said after PAS helped Umno, it left the Islamist party which he considered an immoral act.
The prime minister's special envoy to the middle east also questioned the action of Umno-BN to move alone in the Johor polls.
Pointing fingers
Zahid said that the accusations hurled by PAS against Umno might come back to haunt them.
"If one finger is pointed at (another) person, four fingers are pointing back at him," he added.
For Umno not to be insulted and abused, the Bagan Datuk MP said party supporters must strive to win the Johor election which will be held soon.
“We make sure people who insult and ridicule us will be ashamed of themselves,” he added. - Mkini
