KUALA LUMPUR – Umno can no longer remain nostalgic about past successes and needs to be rebranded as a party of the future, this year’s Umno general assembly delegates said.
Bukit Gantang division head Mohammad Sollehin Mohamad Tajie said during the debate session today that to achieve such a feat, Umno should be relevant to current developments and not be “outdated”.
Alor Gajah division head Fairul Nizam Roslan said the party would only be strong if all the members are united and have camaraderie, and that all must refrain from “shooting down” each other.
“Put the party’s interests first so that its survival will be better defended in the future,” he said.
The party’s Sabah communications and strategic director Datu Rosman Datu Ahir Zaman @ Abdul Halim urged Umno members to immediately deal with the negative perceptions hurled at the party, specifically at the party’s administrative structure.
He said it is crucial to restore the people’s trust in its leadership, thus giving the party confidence to govern the country better.
“...I believe and am confident that whatever decision Umno makes is for Malaysia’s good.
“The president (Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi) is not acting alone, as he is being guided by musyawarah (consultation)...any decision is reached through discussions,” he said. – Bernama, June 9, 2023
