Can UMNO be reinvigorated?

But indispensably, it crucially needs an indomitable patience to defend every invading pain that deeply attacks inside.

The pain is real.

That is what UMNO is now struggling for— finding the best cures for its speedy recovery after the bitter defeat of May 9 election that persistently infects every internal organ inside the political organisation. The infection is deranged, which it could be spread to other uninfected organs if it's not seriously dissected and treated.

The infection is called "disloyalty."

Loyalty is an oxygen. Humans or even animals are dying if they aren't adequately pumped with oxygen-contained bloods. Without the oxygen of loyalty, a political survival is just an impossibility.

UMNO has been losing its elected politicians who represented its flag in the last unforgettable general election. The recent political shift orchestrated by the former 'fighters' of UMNO Sabah has even severely exacerbated the pains that has been suffered by those allegiant organs who are actively working on the reactivation process of the Malay party.

With the divulged entrance of the ex-chief of Puteri UMNO Mas Ermieyati and the rest of standing members of parliament with the likes of Mustapa Mohamed, the party has just lost the key organs that, for the long decades of its existence, had been handing their specialties in constructing UMNO to be a 'worth-fighting' political empire.

I believe that many of us, the eligible voters, still want to see a reinvigoration of UMNO in becoming a wielded opposition to the ruling government of Pakatan Harapan.

The New Malaysia that we are loudly extolling is not just about having a new line-up of national leaders, but also about welcoming the new-visage opposition that could offer the people with their alternative initiatives for the nation's sustainable growth.

With the remaining stalwarts who are entrusted to resume the "transformational agendas", UMNO must not be made dormant.

Every top-echelon leader of the party should be emboldened by the 'demotivation' of the defections that might thwart the "short-term goals" eyed by the party bosses, including the former three-term Negeri Sembilan, chief minister Mohamad Hasan.

I am no partisan individual, but seeing the checks and balances role played by the opposition is my concern. In this democratic country, we cannot just excitingly welcome the "jumping frogs."
