Umno veteran Shahrir Samad keen to see recall elections adopted against party hoppers

JOHOR BARU, July 29 — Bait Al-Amanah chairman and Umno veteran Tan Sri Shahrir Abdul Samad said any enactment of recall election laws against party hopping must start at the parliamentary stage or national level first.“At the parliamentary level, recall election laws against party hopping require the cooperation and understanding of all political parties.

Shahrir, who has been keen for Umno to adopt recall elections, gave the example of the ‘Sheraton Move’ where it started at the parliamentary level and later moved onto the states.“Since we have a period of transition, such discussions can build consensus for the time being. He said the introduction of recall elections would be a timely move as voters have a right to choose their elected representatives.

“But if we can agree with Barisan Nasional on this, we can have a majority say, but it won’t be easy as such amendments would require the endorsement of the Johor palace as well,” he said.
