"For the past 66 years, Umno has fought for the Malays and Islam, Umno had never harmed any race. This is justice and equality to Umno.
"Umno fighters should not feel guilty for advancing the party's struggle for it has promised to continue to defend the Malays and Malaysians," he said, adding this was Umno and the BN's promise.
