Najib: Umno branch and division meetings to be held earlier

 
PETALING JAYA: Umno president Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak has announced that branch and division annual general meetings will be brought forward this year.  
He said the party supreme council had set the branch meetings to held from March 17 to April 30 and the division meetings from July 7 to Aug 26.  
However, Najib said the earlier dates do not mean that the general election is around the corner.
"I want to make clear that the public should not make assumptions and speculate that the earlier meeting dates are an indication on the 14th general election," said the Prime Minister in a blog post Tuesday.  
"There is nothing unusual for the annual general meetings to be held earlier or later in the year," he added.  
Rather, the dates were picked because there are many events scheduled for the year, such as the Hari Raya Aidil Fitri in June and SEA Games in August.  
"I want all Umno and Barisan Nasional machinery to not be complacent or take their jobs too lightly.  
"We should always focus on delivery, fulfilling our promises, spending time to meet and listen to the people and what their wishes and requirements are," he said.  
Najib conveyed his hope that the divisions and branches will further enhance Umno's work and resolve disputes that may harm the party.  
He said the annual general meetings will act as a platform to discuss and solve the problems faced by the people.
"We must always be ready and try to ensure that Umno's machinery continues steadily to serve the people and country," said Najib.
