Umno has approved Tekad 16 as its official party program for the 16th General Election (GE16), according to its president, Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi. Tekad 16 aims to strengthen the party, close ranks, enhance its election machinery, refine its strategy, and reach out to the people.

Zahid emphasized that Tekad 16 would serve as the party's blueprint for election preparations. He urged political cooperation and understanding to be built on mutual respect, honesty, and a commitment to the best interests of the ummah. Zahid stressed that unity does not necessitate identical political parties, but rather maturity to find common ground ahead of future elections, including GE16.
