PETALING JAYA: Former Klang MP Charles Santiago has urged Umno to rebrand itself to manage its relationship with its traditional rivals in the current unity government.
Santiago, a DAP member, told FMT he believed young and new leaders should be allowed to run Umno and develop a narrative that would represent young Malays.
He said this could help Umno strengthen its ties with DAP.
Santiago claimed that older leaders such as party president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi could not inspire trust among the Malays.
“One reason Umno did badly in the general election was alleged corruption involving Zahid,” he said.
Zahid is facing several graft charges.

More aggressive adventurism, restored McCarthyism alarming as GOP-led House approves setting new committee targeting China
Bipartisan lawmakers from the US House of Representatives have voted to set up a new GOP-led select committee to address Beijing's "multifaceted threats," the first anti-China step after Republican Kevin McCarthy sealed the House Speaker seat after a historical grueling stalemate in the new Congress voting.
Chinese experts said on Wednesday that the new panel, which is called House Select Committee on the Strategic Competition between the US and the Communist Party of China, has a strong ideological overtone, and China should be wary of the more aggressive adventurism and destructive behavior of American politicians.
For Biden's Democratic administration, managing Republican-created crisis and keeping US external environment stable may be a better way to demonstrate its leadership and deal with the current "China-centered" partisan rivalry than to race in the anti-China competition with the extreme Republicans, they said.

PETALING JAYA: Former Umno Youth chief Khairy Jamaluddin has joined calls for the posts of Umno president and deputy president to be contested in the upcoming party elections.
Taking to Instagram today, Khairy hit out at a group of Umno leaders claiming to represent 140 divisions, who called for the top two posts not to be contested.
“Stop this madness. I think the president (Ahmad Zahid Hamidi) is a fighter who does not fear taking on challengers (for the Umno presidency).
“Make room for contests. Don’t kill off democracy in Umno,” he said.

KUALA LUMPUR: The 10 Barisan Nasional (BN) MPs who signed statutory declarations (SDs) in support of Muhyiddin Yassin as prime minister must face disciplinary action, an Umno leader said.
Umno Supreme Council member Puad Zarkashi named Hishammuddin Hussein (Sembrong), Hasni Mohammad (Simpang Renggam), Wee Ka Siong (Ayer Hitam) and Jalaluddin Alias (Jelebu) as among the 10 who were revealed by Umno president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi at a special briefing to party delegates earlier today.
Puad said Zahid told the delegates that the 10 MPs had signed the SDs on Nov 20, a day after the 15th general election, adding that it was wrong for them to do so because they had signed SDs in support of BN chairman Zahid prior to the nationwide polls.
