00:00 Wan Agil Wan Hassan has emphasised the need for UMNO's leadership to prioritise the
00:06 party's internal strengthening efforts before considering any steps to enhance relations
00:12 with Pakatan Harapan.
00:14 His remarks come following UMNO Secretary-General Ashraf Wajdi D'suki's recent announcement
00:20 that the party's Supreme Council had resolved to strengthen its ties with PH component parties
00:26 at all levels to ensure political stability.
00:30 The UMNO Youth Permanent Chairman said UMNO's disappointing performance in the recent state
00:35 elections was due to eroding support among the Malays, which was cause for concern.
00:42 Wan Agil said if the party continues to struggle in winning back the support and trust of Malays,
00:48 there may be a possibility the unity government may drop UMNO as an ally to remain in Putrajaya.
00:55 Wan Agil also called on the party's leadership to share the conclusions drawn from the post-mortem
01:00 findings conducted following the recent six state elections.
01:04 Separately, political analyst Mazlan Ali of University Technology Malaysia said some UMNO
01:11 members may need more time to come to terms with the cooperation between former rivals
01:16 UMNO and PH.
