BN Terengganu Told Not To Be Complacent
KUALA TERENGGANU, March 1 (Bernama) -- Terengganu Barisan Nasional (BN) is reminded not to stay in the comfort zone because it needs to work hard to ensure BN continues to rule in the state after the 14th General Election (GE14).
UMNO vice president and Defence Minister Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Tun Hussein said with only an advantage of two additional seats over the opposition, BN should realise that they must work hard to ensure a comfortable victory in the coming GE.
"We have to put aside our personal considerations and put the party's interests first, We don't want only UMNO to be high spirited but all components, MCA, MIC, Gerakan must be together because we are in the same boat...we will not allow our friends to fight alone," he said.
He said this when officiating the Terengganu BN Convention 2018 , which was attended by about 1,100 state BN members here today.
Also present were state BN and state UMNO chairman, who is also Terengganu Menteri Besar, Datuk Seri Ahmad Razif Abdul Rahman; convention committee chairman and Air Putih state assemblyman Wan Abdul Hakim Wan Mokhtar and Terengganu BN component party leaders.
Hishammuddin also wanted all state BN component parties to strengthen their party machinery with the help of all components to come up with more inclusive and comprehensive work plans.
Thus, he hoped the Terengganu BN Convention, being held for the first time, could unite all the BN component parties as an early preparation for Terengganu BN to face the GE14.
