KUALA LUMPUR, June 4 — Umno has postponed the delegates’ meetings for its Division, Wanita, Youth and Puteri wings this year to focus fully on preparations for the upcoming Johor state election.
Umno secretary-general Datuk Dr Asyraf Wajdi Dusuki said the decision, agreed upon by the party’s Supreme Council, aims to ensure members at all levels can assist in election preparations.
“This is to ensure the Wanita, Youth and Puteri delegates’ meetings can be held simultaneously nationwide from July 17 to 19, in accordance with the Umno constitution.
“The division delegates’ meetings will be held the following week, from July 24 to 26,” he said in a statement yesterday.
On Monday (June 1), Menteri Besar Datuk Onn Hafiz Ghazi announced the dissolution of the state legislative assembly after receiving the consent of the Regent of Johor, Tunku Mahkota Ismail, paving the way for the state election to be held within 60 days.
In the 2022 Johor election, Umno-Barisan Nasional won 40 of the 56 seats contested, followed by Pakatan Harapan with 12 seats, Perikatan Nasional (three) and Muda (one). — Bernama
