Umno Youth To Step Up Voter Registration,is that so?

PARIT, May 8 (Bernama) -- Umno Youth aims to register more than 400,000 Umno members, including 140,000 from the party's youth wing, as voters before June.
Its membership and voter registration bureau chairman, Mohd Hisamudin Yahaya, said there was an urgency to do so as latest figures from the Election Commission showed that more than 3.9 million Malaysians who had reached the age of 21 had not registered themselves as voters.
In this regard, Umno Youth plans to establish a special task force led by its chief, Khairy Jamaluddin, to undertake the endeavour in the near future, he told reporters here Sunday.
He said Khairy would table a proposal for the setting up of the task force to Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak, who is Umno president, at the party's management committee meeting soon.
Mohd Hisamudin also urged all 191 Umno Youth divisional heads to step up voter registration efforts.
Yesterday, Deputy Prime Minister and Umno deputy president Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin said that the party should give attention to voter registration ahead of the next general election.
