KUALA LUMPUR: Umno Youth must step up and become the main unifying force for Malays without relying on other parties, says the wing’s Kapar chief Affifi Aris.
Speaking at the Umno Youth assembly today, he said Umno could not rely on certain individuals attempting to speak for all Malays, referring to former prime minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad who launched a “Malay secretariat committee” in June last year.
Affifi said Mahathir needed to rest and recover from his recent injury. “Let Umno Youth take on the task of providing a platform for Malays to unite.”
