KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 14 (Bernama) -- Party Gerakan's 40th National
Delegates Conference (NDC) kicks off tomorrow with high anticipation for
the party's plans and future in gearing up towards the 13th General
Election (GE).
The annual NDC will start with its Youth, Wanita and the Life-long Members meetings held simultaneously, while the parent body's meeting on Sunday is expected to be opened by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak.
Party secretary-general Teng Chang Yeow said top on the agenda would be charting a roadmap for the party to face the upcoming General Election and beyond.
Apart from Najib's speech, he said party president Tan Sri Dr Koh Tsu Koon's speech would also be much awaited by delegates and party members who are eager to know how the president would put in place a more concrete strategy to face the general election and chart the party's future.
"This NDC is important, considering that it is likely to be the last before the General Election is called.
"So this will be a very good time to build up the momentum and party's esprit de corps in preparation for the GE," he told Bernama here, today.
Teng said prior to the NDC, delegates had been requested to submit a question for the prime minister and after going through all the compiled questions, the secretariat had decided to sum it up into three main subjects, namely youth, importance of English and the New Economic Model.
"The questions will be submitted to the prime minister on Sunday and we hope he can deliberate more with us on these three subjects," he added.
He said 70 percent of the party's 2,200 odd delegates had confirmed their attendance to the NDC.
"As for the delegates, there will be no guidelines for them as to what to say and what not to touch on during the debate session. They can bring up any issue and concern pertaining to the party," he said.
