In light of recent political developments, UMNO members have been advised to be moderate in the actions and control their emotions.
UMNO divisions in Perlis are allowed to invite whoever they want to open their respective delegates' meetings, said Perlis UMNO liaison chairman Datuk Seri Shahidan Kassim.
He said all three UMNO divisions in the state -- Kangar, Arau and Padang Besar -- would not be stopped or prevented from inviting the party president, deputy president, vice-presidents or any members of the Supreme Council to officiate their respective delegates' meetings.
"Perlis UMNO is open on this because we all are in one (UMNO) family," he told reporters after presenting a saw to Perlis JPAM and a grass cutter to the Perlis Correctional Department here yesterday.
The Minister in the Prime Minister's Department, who is Arau UMNO division leader was commenting on the action by some divisions in cancelling invitations extended to party president Datuk Seri Mohd Najib Razak, deputy president Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin and vice-president Datuk Seri Shafie Apdal to open their delegates' meeting.
Shahidan also advised UMNO members to be moderate in their action and control their emotion.
