UMNO: Najib Observes General Assemblies Of Three Umno Wings

KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 28 (Bernama) -- Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak and wife, Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor, spent about 45 minutes to observe for themselves the debates at the general assemblies of the Umno Wanita, Youth and Puteri wings Wednesday.

Shortly after arrival at 11.30am, Najib and his wife dropped by at the Dewan Merdeka, Putra World Trade Centre (PWTC) where about 1,000 Wanita Umno delegates were intently listening to the debate by Pasir Mas Wanita Umno division head, Rita Sarbanon Ismail.

Taking advantage of the presence of Najib, who is also Umno president, Rita, as the first debater, informed the audience of the commitment of the 230,000 members of the Wanita machinery in ensuring victory for Umno and the Barisan Nasional (BN) in the next general election, which was greeted by loud applause from the delegates.

Ten minutes later, Najib and Rosmah proceeded to Dewan Tun Dr Ismail, the venue for the Umno Youth assembly, where the delegates were listening to the speech of their leader, Khairy Jamaluddin.

Khairy took the opportunity to express his gratitude to the party president for the efforts made for the young generation and hoped that the momentum would build up to gain bigger support for Umno from the young generation.

Najib also spent time with former prime minister Tun Abdullah Ahmad Badawi, who was present, before entering the Dewan Tun Hussein Onn where the Puteri Umno delegates were having their general assembly.

Later, Najib and Rosmah visited the stalls on Level 3 before leaving the PWTC.

Najib is scheduled to chair a special meeting of the Umno supreme council tonight.
