UMNO Supreme Council that met today has sacked Datuk Zaid Ibrahim, the former de facto Law Minister from the party for attending opposition events.

UMNO President Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi made this announcement at about 11.30pm after chairing the supreme council meeting at the party headquarters in Putra World Trade Centre in Kuala Lumpur.

Datuk Seri Abdullah while replying to questions from the reporters during his 10 minutes press conference stated that Datuk Zaid had no avenue to appeal against his dismissal since he has been sacked where there is no opportunity to appeal. Among the leaders present were his deputy, Datuk Seri Mohd Najib Tun Razak and Secretary-General, Datuk Seri Tengku Adnan Mansor.

While replying the issue on State Assemblyman for Seberang Jaya Datuk Arif Shah Omar Shah who had claimed that he had been sidelined by the Permatang Pauh UMNO Divisional chief Datuk Abdul Jalil Abdul Majid, Datuk Seri Abdullah replied that Datuk Arif Shah met him yesterday and informed that he fully supports UMNO and BN and would not join any other party.
With regards to the forthcoming Kuala Terengganu by-election, Datuk Seri Abdullah stated that the party has not finalised a candidate for the parliamentary seat.

its expected that zi is sacked because prior to this, zi has wrote a letter to bo about 'i suka arrest' policy. in other words, zi is trying to teach bo what to do which bo dislike!!! so seeing zi with the 'enemy' (as in the eyes of barbaric nationalists), this the best chance to boot zi!!!

this really shows bn is very very kecil hati and is a lesson to others to no play-play but be obedient and only talk good about pm & bn & also cannot protest what bn has decided to do even its against their conscious.

these mps are not worth respectful for because they only have interest in their welfare & not the rakyat.

as for arif, whether its true that he will ONLY JOIN PKR provided he becomes DCM , we hope this won't happen!!! if he really feels he has been unfairly treated in bn (not surprising though), let him join as an ordinary member instead!! besides, he was the one who dare to challenge DSAI in the P44 eection!!!

this man must prove his loyalty to PKR and the rakyat before putting him on a golden throne!!! i don't see why there's no other better candidate in PK to fill in DCM post if that needs to be so!!
