Muar delegate Datuk Kadar Shah Sulaiman and Datuk Mazlan Harun said that they were disappointed that no action was taken despite their reports with the Anti-Corruption Agency last year. The duo had lodged reports against party president Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi with the ACA on Aug 5 and Sept 4 last year. “We had noted then if no action was taken, we would have to take more aggressive steps,” said Kadar at a press conference yesterday. “Even the 1,000 reports of abuse of power and money politics noted by Umno disciplinary board chairman Tengku Ahmad Rithaudeen has not been acted upon,” he added. Mazlan, a former Youth Exco member, said that their attempt to halt the Umno general assembly should not be seeing as a move to stop Datuk Seri Najib Razak from assuming the president’s post. “We are not here to stop (Najib). Everyone who loves Umno must take this matter seriously. The process must be completed according to the party constitution and the law. We are not involved in the transition plan, it can be completed anytime,” said Mazlan. However, Mazlan said that no deadlines will be imposed on Umno to complete their investigations. “But we will wait and see the reactions before deciding on the next course of action.”
