  "summary": "Umno president Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi has called for the party to put aside past differences and cooperate with certain parties for national stability, prosperity, and justice. Zahid emphasized that this cooperation should preserve each party's identity and be free from deception and insults, citing inconsistencies in remarks made both inside and outside meetings during the Madani government. He stressed that Umno remains Umno and Barisan Nasional remains BN, and vowed that with new partners, they are determined not to repeat such situations at the 2026 Umno General Assembly.",
