KEPALA BATAS: Khairy Jamaluddin's status of rejoining Umno will be decided after his application is tabled at the Umno supreme council meeting on April 17.
The former Umno Youth chief said this, adding that he had met the party president Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi before Hari Raya and was informed that his application would be presented for deliberation at the meeting.
“I met the president before Hari Raya, and I was told that my application will be tabled at the supreme council meeting on the 17th, where a decision will be made,” he said after attending Bertam assemblyman Datuk Seri Reezal Merican Naina Merican Hari Raya Aidilfitri open house at Bertam Avenue on Friday (April 10).
The former Rembau MP said that he would accept whatever outcome is reached by the party leadership.
“I leave it to the party. I have submitted my application and will accept any decision made,” he said.
Earlier, Khairy expressed appreciation to Reezal for inviting him to attend the Bertam assemblyman’s Hari Raya open house, describing him as a long-time associate.
He said that he has recently begun reconnecting with former colleagues in Umno by attending events and gatherings when invited.
In January 2023, Sembrong MP Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Hussein, former Umno information chief Shahril Hamdan and former Tebrau Umno chief Maulizan Bujang were suspended from the party for six years, while Khairy was sacked.
Khairy submitted his application to rejoin Umno on March 15.
On March 12, Hishammuddin said he was ready to return and play an active role in Umno again if his suspension is lifted. - Star
