Report: Umno sec-gen insists party isn't wary of internal elections - The Independent News

KUALA LUMPUR, July 11 — Datuk Seri Ahmad Maslan has denied that Umno was afraid to hold party elections, saying that, for now, it was focusing on strengthening and forging closer ties among its members.

Speaking to Utusan Malaysia, Ahmad Maslan said even if they were to go ahead, the focus of the party elections would not be the 56 seats on its supreme council, but rather the 191 Youth and Women’s divisions as well as 21,156 Umno branches nationwide. Ahmad Maslan added that 75 per cent of Puteri Umno and 65 per cent of Umno Youth leadership would be over the ages of 35 and 40 respectively, meaning if party elections were to proceed before GE15, these leaders would have to relinquish their posts ahead of national polls.
