KUALA LUMPUR: Debaters at the Umno General Assembly 2021 should take advantage of the opportunity to convey thoughtful proposals related to the people's issues as well as the party's struggle and have an open attitude, says Datuk Seri Mahdzir Khalid.

The Umno vice-president said debates should not be just about political issues, because the main issue that the people were concerned about was economic recovery, which the Umno-led government wanted to achieve at the federal level.
