Umno Youth pledges mature, healthy conduct in Melaka polls

Umno Youth has committed to displaying mature and professional political behavior during the upcoming Melaka election, according to its election director, Mohd Hairi Mad Shah. Speaking at a recent press conference in Johor Baru, he stated that the party would undertake a positive campaign, highlighting the Barisan Nasional (BN) government's record from 1957 to 2018.

He emphasized that BN will not indulge in speculation or spreading false accusations but rather aims to present the party's achievements so that voters can make informed decisions.

Mohd Hairi, who also serves as Umno Youth deputy chief, announced that the party's youth machinery in all 191 divisions across the country would be deployed to aid the Melaka election campaign. He further mentioned that specific tasks have been assigned to the state campaign teams, which include Umno Youth executive council members and division leaders. The aim is to engage with communities and voters in Melaka, building on the party's successful momentum from recent elections in Johor and Negri Sembilan.

The Election Commission has set November 14 as the voting day for the 16th Melaka election, with the nomination deadline scheduled for October 31.
