Ismail Sabri: I commented on DAP-Umno clashes as concerned 'elder'

Podah, you think you are an elder? More of a turtle!!

Malaysiakini : Ismail Sabri Yaakob only commented about the friction between Umno and DAP as an "elder" who does not want to see clashes between the two parties publicised.

The former prime minister advised the parties to only fight behind closed doors where outsiders cannot see them. "To me, parties that combine to form the government cannot clash out in the open, until the media reports it.

"As the elders say, it is best to keep the fight between a husband and wife within four walls, as otherwise, the neighbours and passersby will notice.  "If you need to fight, do it in the house and settle it off. Only then outsiders won't know what our problem is,” Ismail Sabri told reporters yesterday.

The former Umno vice-president was commenting on his earlier remark that he foresees further friction between Umno and DAP, following a war of words between figures within the two parties.

"A ‘forced marriage’ will not work. It must be consensual. In a ‘forced marriage’, there are no feelings for each other. Thus, there will be fissures. "This is just the beginning (of the relationship) but there are DAP (people) commenting about Umno and Umno commenting about DAP," he had said.

AdiviPanthi : Mael Sobli, you are a racist everyone knows that. The less you talk the better it will be. Flattering yourself as an elder statesman, you are NOT even near the toes of Lee Kuan Yew, actually due to banned words I did not have a better choice, so I used toes.

DjarumMas : Mael, why do you keep on reminding us that you are NOT so clever?

Caught and Bowled : Mr. former accidental PM, perhaps it's time for you to fade into oblivion and enjoy your retirement.

OrangeKucing5562 : Ismail Sabri, don’t talk nonsense and do damage control. If you are really so matured and supportive of the Unity govt, you should NOT have talked openly in press also. What a hippo you are.
