PETALING JAYA: A list of the Umno presidential "candidates list", has been sighted by The Star, but not everyone may qualify to be candidates due to criteria specified in the party constitution.

The list includes the three known to have thrown in their lot for the president's post, namely Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi, Tengku Razaleigh Hamzah and Khairy Jamaluddin, as confirmed by Umno executive secretary Datuk Seri Ab Rauf Yusoh on Sunday (June 17).
