Are Zahid, senior Umno leaders knowingly sowing chaos within own ranks? Party insiders seem to think so

KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 28 — While it is common for factions to form within a party, in the case of Umno, any complot is usually kept in check by the steady hand of its supreme council and party president.

However, recent infighting and senior party leaders openly taking pot shots at each other in the media indicate that discipline is at an all-time low.

Yet, party insiders indicate that, in fact, all roads lead to party president Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi and senior party figures.
