Arshad slams political ‘loose cannons’

Brigadier-General Mohamed Arshad Raji cautioned politicians against wielding race and religion to sow discord and hatred, saying it had proven to be a failed political strategy at the recent general election. He said based on the experience of the military veterans’ group, they could tell two types of people who made bad leaders. “First are those empty vessels that speak without much sense. Second are those who lack capability and knowledge but (are) good at currying favour,” he said. “For both types, they often talk ill of others, sow hatred and sabotage others as evil means to gain advantage,” he added. Arshad took issue with statements made by Lokman Adam of UMNO and Nasrudin Hassan of PAS.
