‘No support in Melaka for Umno’: audio clip apparently of PM, Idris Haron makes rounds

KUALA LUMPUR – An audio clip of a phone conversation purportedly featuring former Umno Melaka chief minister Datuk Seri Idris Haron and Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob on the current political crisis in the state is making the rounds.


The recording was sent anonymously by an individual with the email address ahmadmaslan007@protonmail.com to the media this evening, ostensibly to shed light on the events that led to the recent collapse of the Melaka state government.

In the eight-minute clip, a voice resembling Idris’ is heard telling Ismail Sabri why he withdrew support for former Melaka chief minister Datuk Seri Sulaiman Md Ali.

In the clip, Idris tells Ismail Sabri that Umno will not receive widespread support in Melaka for the upcoming elections due to a “lack of leadership” and policies that only favour Malays.

Idris also says in the clip that Sulaiman is “subservient” to Melaka Umno liaison committee chairman Datuk Seri Ab Rauf Yusoh.

“Sulaiman is not okay. He is subservient to Rauf. He follows (Rauf) and he does not have the leadership skills. He is stern. He is not like you,” Idris apparently told Ismail Sabri.

“You know the most unpopular policy in Melaka, Mael (Ismail)? As a prime minister you will regret hearing this ‘no bin’ policy. This means any applications from Indians or Chinese (contractors) will be rejected outright."
