Yesterday, UMNO Youth Chief Datuk Dr Akmal Saleh thanked party president Dato’ Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi for his openness to reviewing political cooperation, following several motions raised at the recent UMNO Youth Special Convention.
In a Facebook post, Dr Akmal proposed that the party begin by exploring ways to strengthen unity within the Malay community, beginning with the two largest Malay parties, UMNO and PAS. However, Zahid rejected any motion to undermine the current government, which contradicts Dr Akmal’s proposal for UMNO to leave the administration.
