Viral video shows Umno delegates booing at no-contest proposal

KUALA LUMPUR: A video showing an Umno general assembly delegate being booed for tabling a motion for the top two positions not to be contested in the upcoming party polls has gone viral on social media.

The 14-second clip showed delegates at the Umno General Assembly on Friday (Jan 13), booing the delegate as he debates the party's policy speech on stage.

The delegate proposes that the top two posts should not be contested and as he speaks, delegates start booing at him.

However, the incident could not be seen from the media centre as none of the debates were screened there.

Earlier in his speech, Umno president Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi said that he would leave it to the delegates to decide if the top two posts should be contested or not.

Saturday (Jan 14) will be the last day of the Umno general assembly.
