Malaysia: Najib Fed Up With Kelantan UMNO

MACHANG, MALAYSIA: UMNO Deputy President Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak pointed out that the Kelantan UMNO must first resolve their internal problems if they want to recepture Kelantan .

“I'm tired. If the Kelantan UMNO's internal disputes can't be resolved, when can we recapture Kelantan then?”

When Najib gave his speech in a public rally Wednesday (27 Feb), he told the Kelantan people that “It is time to make a change!” in hope that they support BN. However, the unsolved internal disputes of Kelantan UMNO is definitely their biggest resistance.

He stressed that the BN should have won Kelantan regime in the last election. However, he could not understand why the BN could win the Machang parliamentary seat, but lost in its state seats of Pulai Chondong, Temangan and Kemuning. It clearly shows that UMNO has internal disputes.

Najib said that the internal UMNO must first work in unity and solidarity in a bid to regain the political power in Kelantan. At the same time, they must get rid of the culture of betrayal.

Najib also thanked Kelantan Umno Liaison chairman Datuk Seri Annuar Musa, for making way for Datuk Dr Awang Adek Hussin to lead the elections team.

Awang Adek contests for one parliamentary seat and one state seat at the coming elections. With such arrangement, it is believed that he is slotted to be Kelantan Menteri Besar should BN win. (Sin Chew Daily)
