The 2023 Umno election is a process to rebuild the party and not to promote personal glory or glorify certain individuals said Umno vice president Mohamed Khaled Nordin.
The higher education minister, who will be defending his party post, said the election scheduled next month is a process to identify prominent leaders who can assist the party to overcome various challenges in the future.
“Umno needs a team that can revive and rehabilitate the party. We are aware that Umno’s current status is not like what it was before, therefore we must emphasise laying down the correct fundamentals and right principles to revive Umno.
“We need a team that can collectively engage in the rehabilitation and revival of the party because it is like a process in a family.
“So, the winner will be Umno and not any individual,” said Khaled (above) who is also the Johor Umno liaison committee chairperson.
He said this after officiating the ‘Biasiswa Perpaduan My Binary’ programme in Johor Bahru today.
Reporters earlier asked Khaled about his level of confidence in the race to defend his position, since many leaders had offered themselves to contest for the post of vice president, including former Johor Umno liaison chairperson Hasni Mohammad.
Khaled who is also the Kota Tinggi MP said apart from defending the post of vice president, he would also defend the Pasir Gudang Umno division chief’s post.
The Umno elections began on Feb 1 and will run until March 18 with branch-level polls for Wanita, Youth, and Puteri wings slated from Feb 1 to 26.
The division-level elections for the Wanita, Youth, and Puteri will be held simultaneously nationwide on March 11.
The Umno divisional delegates meeting and elections along with the election for Umno supreme council members will be held on March 18.
