2. Rasuah vs Politik Wang
Well the controversies doesn't end - yet. Even with the recent election and probably the best ever line-up, UMNO still struggling to clear up it image from this problem.


3. Thanks Pak Lah and Welcome Najib
It already confirmed, Dato Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi retired it post as President of UMNO and possible Prime Minister of Malaysia with his replacement, none other the son of second Prime Minister of Malaysia - Dato Seri Mohd Najib Tun Razak. Well he shouldn't worry about his legacy as his son-in-law - Mr Khairy Jamaluddin win the post as 'Ketua Pemuda', and maybe as the next Prime Minister-to-be. It seems like the previous Malay sultanate where the head of state runs by certain family.





4. The Battles Begin
After a 'successful' AGM with the new line-up, UMNO enter the battles of 2-hills and 1-river facing Pakatan Rakyat (People's Pact) and other Independence. All three are significance battles with Bukit Selambau showed first time in history 15 candidates eyeing for the ADUN post. Bukit Gantang surely a referendum for Perakian towards BN's back-door government and Batang Ai will give a signal whether PKR's presence in Sarawak is acceptable and able to form the next new state-government in less than 2 years time.
