Umno man questions alliance with DAP after polls setback FMTNews FMTEng

Umno Supreme Council member Isham Jalil said it is pointless to win some votes from DAP supporters, ‘but lose 5,000 grassroots votes’.

Umno won only 19 of the 108 state seats it contested, following an equally dismal performance in the 15th general election last November, where it claimed only 26 of the 120 constituencies it contested. He said the party needs to “resolve the DAP issue”, and suggested that Umno consider cooperating with DAP in the government only, and not in elections.

Isham said although Umno might lose or be unable to register huge wins in the beginning, at least it would be able to maintain its grassroots support and slowly win the hearts of the people.“There is no point winning 500 votes from DAP but losing 5,000 grassroots votes.”
