Umno Needs Psychological Warfare Team To Ward Off Opposition Allegations
KUALA LUMPUR, March 4 (Bernama) — The Barisan Nasional (BN), especially Umno, needs to form a psychological warefare team to deal with opposition allegations against the coalition or Umno.
Home Minister and Umno Supreme Council member Datuk Seri Syed Hamid Albar said besides this, the party’s strategies, integrity and credibility also needed to be enhanced to draw public attention.
“Our problem is that we have allowed negative public perceptions about us to persist. When negative perceptions have taken root, it is difficult for us to get out of the situation,” he said at a press conference at Angkasapuri, here, today.
Syed Hamid said having a psychological warfare team could make the party more mature and ward off negative public perceptions about it.
“When something happens or an issue arises, there must be quick action to remove or diffuse wrong perceptions against us.
“We are weak in information dissemination and propaganda, while the opposition is strong in mounting a propaganda,” he said.

Eh… Encik Syed, what talking you? UMNO control the newspapers, TV and radio for decades and you still think you guys are weak in dissemination of propaganda?
Well, you are right in a way. UMNO became weaker if compared to 10 years ago when Internet was not so well established in Malaysia. BN Government really got me fooled for years until Internet came into my life. I am not saying online media are telling absolute truth but at least we have alternative sources of information, after all we have had enough of BN controlled media.
Alright, I proudly proclaim the below statement as quote of the month.
“We are weak in information dissemination and propaganda, while the opposition is strong in mounting a propaganda”
- Syed Hamid Albar
