KUALA TERENGGANU, May 16 (Bernama) -- The Barisan Nasional (BN) is to set up a service centre in every parliamentary constituency to enable resolution of the people's problems together by its component parties.
Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin said Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak came up with the idea to show that the BN could help the people of all communities.
"This approach is to show that the people's problems, though categorised in groups, are not tackled by certain parties but by all component parties," he said at a meeting with Terengganu BN leaders here.
Muhyiddin, who is on a day-long visit to Terengganu, said the move was one of the changes undertaken by the BN so that it would continue to be accepted by the people, particularly in facing the next general election.
He said the existing BN service centres in Umno divisions would be retained.
On the draft amendments to the Umno constitution, he said they would be ready at the end of the month and would be circulated to the state Umno liaison committee chairmen for their input and feedback.
On the statement by Umno Information Chief Ahmad Maslan yesterday that 60,000 Umno information workers failed to discharge their duties, Muhyiddin, who is Umno deputy president, said he had instructed that they be trained to carry out their work effectively.
He said he had instructed the Umno information machinery to draw up training programmes nationwide to create more speakers and information officers to help explain issues so that the people would not be confused.
tunku : by right this service centres by BN should have been there long time ago but better late than never.this is a very good idea. all these while we have component parties service centre but not the BN. with the BN service centre, all walks of life can come and seek assistance and these people who are stationed at the centres should go out to the ground more.don't just warm the chairs at the centres.
