KANGAR, April 23 — Ketereh Umno division chief Tan Sri Annuar Musa is confident that there is still room for cooperation between Umno and PAS through Muafakat Nasional (MN) to face the 15th general election (GE15).
The Ketereh MP said the current deadlock between the two parties was only temporary and efforts to strengthen ties should be continued.
“As a senior politician who has faced PAS in general elections many times, I find MN as a gift from God when Umno and PAS can work together.
“We cannot give up trying to maintain good relations between the two parties even though the ties have been loosened,” he told reporters after paying a courtesy call on PAS spiritual leader Datuk Hashim Jasin at the Perlis PAS Complex today.

LABUAN, April 23 — Parti Warisan (Warisan) will be contesting in several parliamentary seats in the peninsula in the upcoming 15th general election (GE15), its president Datuk Seri Mohd Shafie Apdal said.
Shafie said the move was taken to spread the Sabah-based party’s influence following the party’s first appearance in the Johor polls last March.
“Not only do we want to defend our position at the Sabah state level, but we are ready to spread our wings in Peninsular Malaysia,” he told reporters at the Labuan Warisan Iftar programme here yesterday.

US President Joe Biden is expected to announce in the following days another round of military support to Ukraine, worth $800 million, Reuters reported on Tuesday. This would bring total US military aid to Ukraine since late February to well over $3 billion, Reuters said. On the same day, Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu said the US and Western countries it controls are doing everything to drag out Russia's operation as much as possible with "intentions to provoke the Kiev regime to fight to the last Ukrainian."
Also on Tuesday, CNN cited defense officials and sources familiar with US intelligence as saying that the US doesn't really know what happens to the weapons sent to Ukraine: whether they are armed as the US intended or whether the shipments ultimately end up in unexpected places. This being the case, though, the US is still working to enhance its military aid to Ukraine.

Umno’s Shahril Hamdan believes his party must reform but its return to popularity pushing that agenda further down the line
KUALA LUMPUR, April 21 ― Umno’s defeat at the watershed 2018 general election should have been the impetus the party needed to institute reforms.
But as support returns amid political fatigue, its current information chief Shahril Hamdan admits that the reform spark is fading fast.
Umno won two back-to-back state elections ― Melaka and Johor ― with landslide majorities, spurring confidence that is now translating into a push for snap polls.
Shahril told Malay Mail in an interview recently that he is hopeful Umno will regain federal power in the 15th general election, rumoured to be planned for the third quarter this year
