UMNO Youth thugs in action in front of the Parliament House

This incidence happened at about 2.30 pm on 26.2.09. An wheel-chaired bound lawmaker from the People Coalition / Pakatan rakyat opposition alliance force - DAP (Democratoc Action Party) MP Karpal Singh was mobbed by 30 UMNO (United Malays National Organisation) Youth members, preventing him from entering the Parliament.

Contrary to its name, UMNO Youth are not the teenager members of UMNO (main political party of the Barisan Nasional / Coaliation Front that rule the nation) but grown ups whose behaviour and brains are nothing like of grown-ups.

As we can see from the footage, the security personnel of the Parliament did not take immediate intervention when the wheel-chaired bound politician is being intimidated and attacked.

Although the speaker of the Parliament expressed regret over the incidence immediately and urged the Home Ministry to investigate the incidence, we have heard no serious action has been taken against these mobsters even till now.

A double standard on how these UMNO Youth people can get away with such behaviour; moreover in front of Parliament House is again testifying that UMNO Youth or even UMNO itself is fulled and backed by these gangsters who are supposed to be the succession generation of the party. Shameful and disgraceful!
