UMNO Fokus Kepentingan Rakyat

1. UMNO ketika ini memberi keutamaan kepada Sidang Dewan Rakyat yang akan bermula pada 13 Julai 2020.

2. UMNO sedar terdapat usaha giat dilakukan untuk menggugat kedudukan YAB Perdana Menteri oleh pihak-pihak yang mahu merebut jawatan berkenaan.

3. Arahan telah dikeluarkan kepada Ahli-ahli Parlimen UMNO dan Barisan Nasional untuk mempertahankan Kerajaan Perikatan Nasional yang diterajui oleh Perdana Menteri, YAB Tan Sri Muhyiddin Mohd Yassin, daripada terus diganggu-gugat oleh pihak pembangkang.

4. Fokus UMNO ketika ini adalah untuk memastikan isu-isu berkaitan kebajikan dan kepentingan rakyat yang semakin tertekan dalam menghadapi bebanan hidup pasca Covid-19.

5. Semua Menteri dan Timbalan Menteri Barisan Nasional telah diminta mengambil tindakan menerusi kementerian masing-masing dalam usaha memulihkan ekonomi dan menjana peluang pekerjaan terutamanya golongan yang terkesan oleh Covid-19.

6. Justeru, UMNO tidak seharusnya terheret sama dalam polemik perbahasan mengenai calon Perdana Menteri, malah tumpuan harus diberikan kepada usaha untuk menjaga kepentingan dan kebajikan rakyat.

UMNO focuses on people’s interest

1. UMNO is currently giving priority to the House of Assembly which will commence on July 13, 2020.
2. UMNO is aware that efforts are being made to challenge the position of the Prime Minister by those who want to take office.
3. Directions were issued to UMNO and Barisan Nasional Members of Parliament to defend the Perikatan Nasional government led by Prime Minister YAB Tan Sri Muhyiddin Mohd Yassin from further opposition.
4. UMNO’s current focus is to address the issues of the welfare and interests of the increasingly depressed people in the face of the post-Covid-19 burden of living.
5. All Ministers and Deputy Ministers of Barisan Nasional have been urged to take action through their respective ministries in an effort to revitalize the economy and create employment opportunities especially for those affected by the Covid-19.
6. Therefore, UMNO should not be dragged along in the debate on the Prime Minister’s candidate, instead focusing on efforts to protect the interests and welfare of the people.
