PH manifesto merely 'copy paste,' BN's is original: Khairy Jamaluddin

Former UMNO Youth chief Khairy Jamaluddin criticized the newly announced Pakatan Harapan (PH) manifesto for the Johor state election, calling it a last-minute "copy paste" job that mimics the Barisan Nasional (BN) manifesto. He argued that the PH leadership lacks original ideas, resorting to policies already implemented by the BN government under Menteri Besar Datuk Onn Hafiz Ghazi over the past four years.

“

I read the PH manifesto that was just announced, they were already late because it was only launched today, but it turns out to be a 'copy paste' manifesto. Housing, youth, economy, small and medium enterprises, they waited a week because they wanted to 'copy paste'.

Jamaluddin urged Johor voters to choose the "original" BN manifesto, which he claimed has been proven, over the PH version he described as plagiarized. "I read the PH manifesto that was just announced, they were already late because it was only launched today, but it turns out to be a 'copy paste' manifesto," he stated during a rally in Kota Masai. He specifically mentioned housing, youth, economy, and small and medium enterprises as areas where PH allegedly waited a week to copy ideas.

Between the original and the imitation, it is better for the people of Johor to choose the original manifesto, which is by BN, compared to the 'copy paste' one.

He also expressed his unwavering loyalty to UMNO, the party he has been with for over 20 years, despite facing disciplinary action. Jamaluddin, who hosts a podcast called 'Keluar Sekejap' (Leaving for a While), shared that his heart remains with UMNO, even though other political parties invited him to join. He believes that a strong BN state government will effectively implement policies for the welfare and prosperity of Johor, urging voters to support BN's "blue wave" to ensure a solo victory.

“

I made a podcast and named it Keluar Sekejap, because I knew that even though the UMNO president was angry with me, it wouldn't last long. Alhamdulillah, by the grace of prayers, the Aidilfitri celebration, and the president's magnanimity, I got the moment I had long awaited.
