“We cannot keep relying on winning in only rural areas. We must win in urban areas, so as to be seen as being able to compete in the cities,” he said during Karangkraf’s Bicara Minda session here. “If we cannot get support from professionals and the educated, then I fear Umno has no future,” he said. Reiterating his long-standing caution over the Umno-PAS cooperation, Khairy said he nonetheless brought up this fact when he attended a Perpaduan Ummah gathering at Pendang in Kedah on Saturday.
