JOHOR BARU: Despite winning the Pelangai by-election, Umno still needs to work harder and prove to the Malays, in particular in Felda areas, that safeguarding their rights is the party's top priority, say analysts.
"Umno still faces issues in regaining Malay support. Perikatan's ability to draw a lot of Malay votes from Felda schemes shows that Umno is losing out on the perception game being played," the political analyst of Universiti Teknologi Malaysia's Razak Faculty Perdana Centre said when contacted here on Tuesday .
"As it is in the government, Umno must make sure that the Malays such as Felda settlers, who are their core supporters, will continue to receive government support," he added. Meanwhile, Felda Air Tawar 3 settler Sahaman Biran, 75, said he would continue to back Umno and Barisan.
