Top 2 posts shouldn’t be contested, says Wanita umnoonline chief
Opening the general assembly of the women’s wing here today, Noraini said Umno members needed to support the existing leadership to strengthen the party and regain the confidence of voters. “Therefore, it would be best that the president and deputy president’s posts are not contested,” she said.“Give them the room and support to strengthen and revive Umno, for the sake of the party’s political survival and the country.
“Externally, we lost due to the perceptions played up . Internally, we lost because some of us would not stop shooting ourselves in the foot,” she said.She said Umno needed to be more visible and prominent on social media, and also urged the party to set up a women’s leadership academy to produce more women leaders. Yesterday, Umno Supreme Council member Puad Zarkashi said Zahid vowed to clean up the party to rid it of elements that could hinder its new direction.
