Umno’s Khairy says will ‘give way’ to party Number 2 in Rembau for GE15, unsure where else to contest

KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 4 — Health Minister Khairy Jamaluddin confirmed today that he has been asked to “move out” of the Rembau parliamentary seat in Negri Sembilan to make way for Umno deputy president Datuk Seri Mohamad Hasan.

The Rembau MP for almost 15 years said he will toe the party line and added that he is now unsure if he will contest in the 15th general election. “He has informed me to go to another area. Because he is the Rembau chief and I am his deputy, he has requested that I find another area to contest because he wants to contest in Rembau,” the 46-year-old told reporters after officiating an event at the public low-cost flats in Seri Alam 2 here.Khairy who has been Rembau MP since 2008 said he has not thought about where else he might contest when asked.

“Why would I think about going to other areas when I have been in Rembau for 15 years and since I have been told to move out, I have to work hard to look for a new area that would accept me,” he elaborated.“It’s just that I haven’t received any instruction and if I want to head to other areas, it’s embarrassing to infiltrate other people’s area.Mohamad confirmed yesterday that he would defend his Rantau state seat that he has held since 2004.

This is 'meritocracy'? Like in the best person for the job, regardless of race, religion or gender? Or doesn't that apply to political parties when it comes to selecting candidates to stand in state & federal elections? Khairykj umnoonline barisanasional

Something truly embarrassing & motive behind all these. Now umnoonline becoming laughing stock & may even cause another defeat in PRU15 Top Leaders must start think of the party not themselves. Especially those in court cluster. Once bitten twice shy Khairykj IsmailSabri60

Hon Khairykj is son and minister of Malaysia. He does not need to worry. Hon Khairykj will win from any seat he stands in whole country. He has highest respect and favourable rating across the country. Hon Khairykj is best to lead from front, when economy needs growth.

Port Dickson pun boleh

It'll be cool if Rembau voters reject Tok Mat
