Postponing Umno polls is for party stability, not to save my position, says Zahid


KUALA LUMPUR: The proposal to amend the Umno constitution to allow party elections to be held after the 15th General Election (GE15) is for the sake of party stability and not personal benefit, says Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.

The Umno president scoffed at claims that it was to protect his position in the party, calling it a "narrow-minded" mindset.
