UMNO GENERAL ASSEMBLY in DECEMBER.

General Assembly in December, FULL STOP!

The Umno Supreme Council which meets at Menara Dato’ Onn PWTC on Friday is widely expected to stick to the original plan to have the party’s crucial General Assembly is December, instead of an earlier decision to postpone it till March, 2009.

Umno President Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi, sources said, has agreed to bring forward the General Assembly and settle all party matters (election) before we, as a Nation, cross into the New Year.

Abdullah, it was reliably understood, has told his deputy Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak that the current unbridled political fever in the party would pose great risks to the Government’s effort to face the impending Economic Crisis.

“Pak Lah has agreed that the decision (to hold the Umno General Assembly in December and not March, 2009) would be in the BEST INTEREST OF Umno and The Country”

Abdullah, it was understood, has however requested to stay on as Prime Minister until March to enable him to complete his uncompleted Reforms.

“Whatever it is I think this is good news for Malaysia as our leaders have the interest of the rakyat and the country at heart and are not spinning around for their self interests alone’ – the highly placed party source said.

Obviously holding the General Assembly earlier is better, for Umno and the whole nation, as the Government could be more focused in ensuring our Survival rather than being engaged in never-ending mudslinging and unrestrained politics.

It’s an open secret and an undisputed fact now that Umno leaders holding Government posts are spending more time for politics then their greater role as Ministers, Deputy Ministers, Menteris Besar and so on.

I was a little skeptical when told that Pak Lah, on his own volition, has agreed to return to the original Umno general assembly schedule in December even though some of his close ‘friends’ think otherwise.

We Shall Just Wait For Pak Lah To Announce the Good News after the Supreme Council Meeting.

Thank You, Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi.
