PETALING JAYA: Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi says his statement that Barisan Nasional is ready to brave floods if it coincides with the 15th General Election (GE15) has been taken out of context.

The Umno president said this was meant to show Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob that the Barisan election machinery was ready to ensure victory in GE15, regardless of the situation.
