KUCHING: PBB vice Youth chief Pandi Suhaili describes those who attempt to bring Umno into Sarawak as power crazy.

He pointed out that this group of people was attempting to destablise politics in the state, hoping that when Umno comes in, they will stand to gain.

“If we are to look at the political scenario, there is no reason at all for Umno to come in…we are okay.

“However, regardless of this, we continue to hear claims by certain people who said they are trying to bring Umno into Sarawak because the state needs Umno.

“Does the state, which currently enjoys political stability, really need Umno or are they the ones who actually need Umno for their own self-interest?” asked Pandi when commenting on the statement made by the chief political secretary to the chief minister Abdul Karim Rahman Hamzah last Saturday that certain parties wanted to paint a bad picture about Sarawak to draw attention to themselves.

The vice youth chief thus urged this group of people to stop their act because it will only put Umno in a bad light.

“I agree with YB Abdul Karim that Umno is a big and well-disciplined party.

“This group of people, who claimed to be its members, is actually trying to tarnish the good image of Umno,” he said, adding that he would not be surprised if the group is actually sponsored by certain parties to cause a rift between Umno and other political parties in the state.
