AS the GE15 war drums begin to beat, Patriot calls on all citizens, custodians, and stakeholders to uphold patriotism to the letter.
This is our nation. This is our future. Do not squander it anymore.
Patriot is of the strongest opinion that all those guilty of plotting for power against the values and principles enshrined in our sacrosanct federal constitution, have abused or plotted to compromise the constitutional monarchy, are facing court cases for corruption, and who have been found guilty by the courts must be banned from the coming 15th general election.
Malaysians must let their consciences dictate.
Political party leaders must walk the talk and walk tall, or be damned in our history books.
Every institutional leader on the payroll of the taxpayers is duty-bound and must ensure that they do not collude and plot with tainted politicians.
Individuals who had a hand in the despicable Sheraton Move, please have the dignity and honour to disqualify yourself, or be shamed in the campaign run-up.
Those who are facing court cases of alleged corruption, please stay away until you are vindicated. Otherwise you are worse than the murderous thief.
Those even appealing a court conviction and prison term sentence, please let the fear of God and eternal damnation keep you away for good. If you are appealing the court verdict, then stay away too until you are proven otherwise.
All those surviving on the grapevine of power and contracts, please stop ruining this nation for your own greed. Stay away from funding and cyber-trooping unpatriotic individuals and questionable political party leaderships.
We cannot march into a general election with the hopes of saving our beloved, butchered country if we continue to allow the crooks and plotting evils to masquerade as saviours of the nation, king, and citizens.
We must realise that the world is in impending peril, with geopolitical uncertainties and reeling economic pains which all demand a stable, honourable, reliable, and worthy government and political leadership.
This is where we have to count on social media, and in particular, all honourable media in the country to stand up for national service.
Patriot on its part is galvanising a force that will not hesitate to expose the litany of sins of questionable individuals who still harbour dubious plots to hoodwink citizens like wolves in sheep’s clothing wanting to march through the gates of GE15.
If we love the nation truly and uphold the sacrosanct constitution that guarantees a progressive nation built on good governance and principles of good leadership, and that is free of corruption, then step forward and do your part as good citizens. – The Vibes, June 28, 2022
