Pemuda Umno sedia sambut seruan Himpunan Mega Penyatuan Ummah

Pemuda Umno has expressed willingness to respond to the call for a Mega Ummah Rescue Gathering, but emphasized the need for discussions and proposals to address the people's issues, rather than merely gathering supporters. Ketua Pemuda Umno, Dr Akmal Saleh, stated that the gathering should not only be a platform for supporters but also to discuss matters concerning the youth and the nation.

Dr Akmal clarified that he declined the call during the Pemuda Umno forum because he wanted to engage in a meaningful discussion during the forum. He further stated that any proposed gathering should have a clear purpose and result in actionable solutions. This approach aligns with the Rimbun 1.0 initiative advocated by Pemuda Umno, which includes discussions on education issues.

He provided examples of suggestions made through the program, which eventually led to government action, such as the establishment of Tabika Autisme Kemas classes, now with 19 branches across the country. Dr Akmal stressed that the approach should be carried forward in the Mega Ummah Rescue Gathering to ensure that efforts towards unity do not stop at mere slogans, but rather produce tangible actions.

The gathering aims to bring together people and discussions for a comprehensive solution to the people's problems, rather than just focusing on specific issues like freeing Anwar Ibrahim. Dr Akmal emphasized that their gathering should be about solutions for addressing all people's issues, not just selective ones.

Additionally, Pemuda Umno plans to establish a special task force under the Legal Affairs Office to assist women facing hardships when their husbands fail to fulfill their responsibilities towards the family. This task force aims to ensure that women in conflict situations are not left without legal support due to lack of knowledge about court procedures.

Dr Akmal explained that husbands, even those who have remarried or are abroad, may have children who need support and education, while their wives are left to care for them alone, leading to prolonged dependency.

The special task force will help these women understand the legal process and connect them with available assistance. Moreover, Pemuda Umno is also interested in addressing the issue of fathers who fail to pay child support despite court orders. Dr Akmal stressed that the government should consider reviving the mechanism of wage deduction to ensure that child support payments are made.
