KKMM agencies must be pro-active in facing GE14

Deputy Communications and Multimedia Minister who is also Hulu Terengganu Member of Parliament, Datuk Jailani Johari said the Information Department, Radio Television Malaysia (RTM) and Department of Special Affairs (JASA) must swiftly reply to all the opposition's baseless accusations and negative issues.

"They are the key to national political stability and harmony...the relentless attacks of the opposition should not go unanswered," he said.

He said this in his speech at a prize-presentation ceremony in conjunction with a Hulu Terengganu level District Voting Centre (PDM) Competition here, yesterday.

The Hulu Terengganu UMNO Division chief also urged the party to change its style of working in accordance with the times and be always up to date with the demand of the people.

"Forget the conflicts between us and strengthen unity..don't dwell too much over who will be a candidate at PRU14. From now on, it is time for us to work as a team," he said.

Meanwhile, Jailani said the PDM competition was held to revive and mobilise PDM activities to face PRU14.

"We will also be able to gather the latest data and information on the general election besides evaluating the effectiveness, efficiency and the morale of the general election machinery.

The best PDM was Pulau Bahagia, Manir which took home RM4,000, second was Tok Randok and third prize winner was Nibong.
