JUST STOP LYING & CHEATING! Penang Umno goes all out to get support of town people

GEORGE TOWN: The Penang Umno is setting up a special committee which will be entrusted with the task of mobilising all the party wings to get the town community, especially the young people, to support the party.

Its deputy liaison chairman, Datuk Seri Dr Hilmi Yahaya, said the focus would be on organising programmes that could bring the closer to the young people, especially school leavers.

"We want to restore Umno's glory where at one time it served as a medium for the young people to be active in the community activities.

"It is hoped this can produce future leaders," he told reporters at a Quran reading programme organised by the state Youth and Sports Ministry at the Ridwaniah Mosque, Teluk Kumbar here yesterday.

Hilmi, who is Balik Pulau Member of Parliament, expressed the need for branch and divisional party leaders to change their attitude and to be more approachable to be close with the people.
