The Emergence of the Real Khairy Jamaluddin
I read KJ’s interview in the Star Today. I know the man personally, and I hope this straight from the heart interview will go a long way in shedding the light of who the real Khairy Jamaluddin is.
I see the merits of his argument that his nominations graph was steady and constant. There was no quick spike and levelling off. He started like that, he ended like that. Steady support from divisions close to him. Any accusations of money politics could be thwarted by this trend in nominations.
I also share his vision of Pemuda Umno; becoming a truly national movement.
Of course the first agenda will always be the Malay agenda. There is no running away from that. But we need to go beyond that and have a broader and inclusive outlook..
Pemuda Umno must be representative of Malaysia and the Malaysian view.
We need to be able to pull not only people who are on the fence, but also those in the Opposition. We are not doing that now. We are too close-minded, narrow and too elitist.

Does it hit a chord with the younger generation out there?. The generation that will feature prominently in the next general elections, the generation that will look for a youth leader they can relate to…
Now that the real Khairy Jamaluddin is emerging, would you give him a chance?
