A Gerakan Youth leader today lauded Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak's statement that with the 1Malaysia concept the Barisan Nasional would one day become a single party without components.

In view of this, Tan suggested three things to be considered.

1. Direct membership of all Malaysians into BN

Tan said existing members from BN's component parties should be allowed to hold dual memberships in both BN and its component parties.

"Non-existing members of BN component parties such as members of IPF, Makkal Sakti or any other Malaysians who support BN's ideology should be allowed to have direct membership into BN," he added.

2. BN convention

The Gerakan leader said this is a general assembly of BN to be held annually at both state and national levels which would be participated by all members from all its component parties.

"This convention was supposed to held in February this year but was postponed due to the transition of our country's prime minister," he added.

3. BN secretariat

"The aforesaid proposals are not meant to request for immediate merger of all BN component parties but rather to prepare for any eventualities in future," he added.
