JOHOR BARU: Umno members in Johor have been commended for not sabotaging the party in the Pulai and Simpang Jeram by-elections, says a state Umno leader.
Johor Umno information chief Datuk Md Jais Sarday said that while there was a swing of Malay votes to Perikatan Nasional, the overall win in Pulai and Simpang Jeram seats showed that most Umno members loved the party and toed the party line.
In GE15, voter turnout in Pulai was 71%, while 53.4% of voters voted in the state elections in March last year. “Johor may not have that many sekolah pondok like in Kedah, Kelantan or Terengganu but our religious schools teach the proper ways of Islam. We do not use religion to be judgemental of people or promise people entry into heaven if they supported a particular political party,” said Md Jais, who is also Johor Barisan Nasional information chief.
