Abdul Rahman Dahlan

PETALING JAYA: The ongoing disputes within Umno do not mean that the party is weak, said an Umno Supreme Council member.

Abdul Rahman Dahlan told FMT that although the Umno leadership is seen to have various “tribes”, it does not mean the party cannot unite at the negotiating table.

“Differences of opinions will not lead to a situation where we (Umno leaders) cannot come back together. There is still room for discussion and resolution,” said Rahman, who had himself been embroiled in a leadership dispute with Sabah Umno chief Bung Moktar Radin ahead of the state elections last September.

Rahman, who is a former federal minister, led several Sabah Umno leaders to oppose the appointment of Bung as the Barisan Nasional (BN) election director for the polls.
