Umno repeats call for truce and ‘war cabinet’ - superadmin - 08-17-2021 PETALING JAYA: Umno has repeated its call for a political truce and the formation of a “war cabinet” to focus on overcoming the Covid-19 pandemic in the wake of Muhyiddin Yassin’s resignation as prime minister. Party president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi said a stable administration was needed to help with the country’s recovery and attend to the welfare of the people, a matter which is becoming increasingly critical. Zahid said Umno had vast experience in governing the nation as it had been part of Barisan Nasional which governed the country for 61 years. The party was considering several candidates to succeed Muhyiddin, he said, while also denying that he had nominated himself for the position. He said the matter had never crossed his mind. - More -
