SEREMBAN: The Umno party elections for the 2021/2023 term may be held in November next year, says deputy president Mohamad Hasan.

He said the elections had to be held before the expiry of the current leadership’s term, which is in December 2022.

The elections at the branch level, therefore, have to be held by July at the latest, he told reporters after opening the delegate meetings of the Rembau Umno Wanita, Youth and Puteri movements here today.

He was asked to comment on a proposal by several Umno divisions for the party elections to be held at least a year before the 15th general election (GE15).

To a question whether there was a proposal at the latest Umno Supreme Council meeting for the top five party posts not to be contested at the coming party elections, Mohamad said there was no such proposal.
