He reminded Umno members to go back to the party’s historical roots and said that the party started out as a political movement to champion the people’s aspirations and not as an “elite” group with vested interests. “However, this is a window of opportunity for Zahid to prove that Umno is going back to the middle, a party for all, as they are working together with PH via the Unity Government.
“Zahid can be successful because Umno used to be known as centrist until perhaps 2005. It is not something new for them. The party members need to learn quickly and with the help of the Unity Government, I believe Umno can do it,” he said. “He has no choice but to get Umno aligned with PH’s direction but it is not easy, it will take several years. Umno’s grassroots are not used to working with other parties outside of Barisan Nasional such as DAP. We can see a lot of unhappiness at the grassroots level.
