PADANG BESAR – Umno Youth and Puteri Umno members have been urged to venture into business to develop themselves as well as the country.

Supreme Council member and Padang Besar Umno chief Datuk Zahidi Zainul Abidin said the division is seeking to empower its Youth and Puteri members by encouraging them to venture into business, as “opportunities are always wide open”, he told Bernama here today.

He said this move will also benefit Perlis’ economy.

Citing Padang Besar as an example, he said the area has resources that have yet to be explored and developed such as resources in tourism, among others.

Earlier, Zahidi officiated the Padang Besar Puteri Umno delegates meeting at Dewan Shaari Jusoh, Mata Ayer.

On the Padang Besar Umno division meeting that will take place tomorrow, Zahidi, who is also the Deputy Communications and Multimedia Minister, said the meeting seeks to explain the importance of cooperation between Malay parties within Perikatan Nasional. – Bernama, January 2, 2021
