I notice that many UMNO leaders - YBs and Excos - live in stately homes and drive equally stately cars. After one or two terms, they are awarded datukship and that emplaces them in an exclusive social grouping.
When ever ther is a fuction in the kampong, such as prize giving, UMNO people would swoop-in in a convoy of Mercedes, MPVs, and 4WDs. The kampong folks look on in awe and they give the visitors a grand welcome. Red carpet is rolled out. Kompang, Bunga Mangar, and Sireh Junjung accompany the VIPs to the place of honour on stage specially made for the occasion.
On the other hand oppostion politicians come to the village without any fun fair. They bring their humility and a couple of Koranic verses and they manage to give ther message to the simple kampong folks
