Umno is backward and a relic. It is a dinosaur in the age of fighter jets. Umno cannot comprehend nor accept the needs of the current generation of Malay Malaysians. Umno was created for leadership. Unfortunately over the decades, the leaders lost touch with the people. The first and foremost to do this was of course our well-loved Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad. The excuse was, it was for the people's benefit. But while today we have first class infrastructure, our education policies and racist directives ensure that people remain in Umno's stranglehold. It is refreshing to know that the current generation of Malay Malaysians are moving away from Umno into new horizons. That way we can only do better. Anonymous Coward,

I'm not much of an expert in Islamic law but isn't it "wajib" for women in Islam to "menutup aurat"? What is SIS's take on the subject?

I wonder how many people from that generation feel the same way. It’s interesting to note that the daughter of one of the founders of Umno seems to feel that it isn’t worth saving anymore.
