PETALING JAYA: There should be a new generation of leaders in Umno led by Barisan Nasional’s Prime Minister-designate Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri, says Khairy Jamaluddin.
“There are many emerging and aspiring leaders within the party. We need to show that Umno is changing, with new leaders such as myself.
“It’s not that the party is damaged. We must see a change of guard, a new line-up of leadership,” he said.
The Barisan candidate for the Sungai Buloh parliamentary seat said this after a visit to a religious school in Kampung Sungai Pelong Saturday (Nov 12).
Sungai Buloh will see a seven-cornered fight this 15th General Election.
Khairy will be up against Ramanan Ramakrishnan (Pakatan Harapan - PKR), Mohd Ghazali Md Hamin (Perikatan Nasional - PAS), Mohd Akmal Mohd Yusoff (Gerakan Tanah Air - Pejuang), Ahmad Jufliz (Parti Rakyat Malaysia) as well as Independent candidates Syed Razak Alsagoff and Nurhaslinda Basri (Sifu Linda).
