KUALA LUMPUR: Perak Umno wants to win back its former strongholds in Larut, Bagan Serai and Bukit Gantang, all held by PPBM top guns who defected from Umno.

Perak Umno chief Saarani Mohamad expressed disappointment that Umno members in these constituencies were “stolen” by PPBM.

“Umno members were stolen. Weren’t there other Malays for them to steal?,” he asked at the party’s general assembly.

Home affairs minister Hamzah Zainudin is Larut MP while deputy health minister Dr Noor Azmi Ghazali is Bagan Serai MP. The Padang Serai seat is held by Syed Abu Hussin Hafiz Syed Abdul Fasal.

All three had won in GE14 under the Barisan Nasional ticket while being members of Umno.

“Umno Perak will contest in Larut, Bagan Serai and Bukit Gantang,” he said to a loud applause from the floor, and shouts of Hidup Umno (long live Umno).

Former Umno president Najib Razak was also seen seated at the front row among the audience.
