  • UMNO Youth chief Muhamad Akmal Saleh said efforts to unite the ummah were necessary to strengthen Malaysia’s stability.
  • He said unity should begin among the country’s political leadership before extending to smaller community groups.
  • He cited the attendance of 25 UMNO representatives at the PAS Youth assembly as a sign of support for the agenda.

The push for ummah unity between PAS and UMNO is being presented not simply as a political aspiration, but as a requirement for Malaysia’s stability. UMNO Youth chief Datuk Dr Muhamad Akmal Saleh said division could not create strength, while cooperation could provide the foundation for a stronger country.

Speaking after attending the 67th PAS Youth Annual Assembly in Kota Bharu, Muhamad Akmal said the effort should begin at the highest level before reaching smaller groups in society. “Division does not strengthen us, but when we are together, it makes us stronger. So, this is not only about Malays, but the core of this country must first be united, and God willing, it will be followed by smaller groups,” he said.

He pointed to the presence of 25 UMNO representatives at the assembly as evidence of support for the unity agenda promoted by both parties. The assembly’s theme, “Leading Unity,” also closely matched the platform of UMNO Youth.

“Our agenda has no other purpose than to unite the ummah. In fact, this theme is almost the same as the agenda of UMNO Youth. To find out how similar they are, wait until next week, at the UMNO General Assembly,” Muhamad Akmal said.
