PETALING JAYA: Umno Youth chief Akmal Saleh says he believes that DAP’s participation in the unity government could prove that the party is not the anti-Malay monster as it has been made out to be
Akmal said the sentiment of DAP being anti-Malay was the result of the people being brainwashed from an early stage with such beliefs about the party.
“Since we became the unity government, we need to prove to the people that what they believed (about DAP being anti-Malay) is wrong and distorted,” Akmal said in a Sinar Harian interview.
Umno and DAP are coalition partners in the government of Pakatan Harapan chairman Anwar Ibrahim.

“UMNO members, supporters want freedom to decide if they should vote for DAP in state polls”
UMNO members and supporters must not be coerced to vote for DAP in the upcoming state polls to ensure a victory for the unity government.
Instead, they must be given freedom to exercise their voting rights and not forced vote for DAP candidates to uphold the spirit of unity within the Pakatan Harapan-Barisan Nasional (PH-BN) alliance, according to Iskandar Puteri UMNO Division deputy head Datuk Pandak Ahmad.
“The statement made by (UMNO secretary-general) Datuk Seri Ahmad Maslan appeared to be personal in nature. He seem to not understand the sentiment on the ground,” Pandak was quoted by the New Straits Times as saying during an Aidilfitri open house organised by the Iskandar Puteri police headquarters.
“We (UMNO and DAP) can work together in the unity government but in the context of calling or forcing UMNO supporters, he (Ahmad) has no authority, so be careful when making statements.”
