Assemblyman's Party Hopping: Perak Umno To Meet Najib Tomorrow

IPOH, Jan 25 (Bernama) -- The Perak Umno Liaison Committee will meet party deputy president Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak tomorrow evening to discuss the issue of Bota assemblyman Datuk Nasaruddin Hashim having joined Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) today.
Its chairman Datuk Seri Tajol Rosli Ghazali said Najib was expected to issue a statement after the meeting scheduled to be held in the federal capital.
"I am also asking Datuk Nasaruddin to meet the Umno president (Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi) as there is nothing that cannot be resolved. If he is free, he can also meet Najib tomorrow," he told reporters after chairing an emergency meeting of Perak Barisan Nasional (BN) assemblymen, here, Sunday night.
Tajol Rosli also hoped that Nasaruddin would think deeply over his action and return to Umno.
On rumours that a number of BN assemblymen would be joining Pakatan Rakyat, he refuted them, saying they were mere speculation.
Asked whether Nasaruddin had before this voiced out any problems to him, he said Nasaruddin had never done so.
"Perhaps problems could have cropped up since the divisional elections last October where Nasaruddin contested the Bota Umno division chief post against the incumbent Datuk Mohd Zaim Abu Hassan and lost," he said.
Tajol Rosli also said that Nasaruddin had so far not contacted him and his phone calls to him (Nasaruddin) went unanswered, although some Umno members were in contact with him.
"Perhaps he feels embarrassed to speak to me after what happened, but I hope he will reconsider the decision (of joining Pakatan Rakyat) he made today," he added.
Twenty of the 28 Perak BN assemblymen attended the emergency meeting which ended at 11pm, while the rest other than Nasaruddin, were out of the state at the time.

tunku : let him go tajol. there's no point for umno to keep people like him in the party.he had lost the divisional elections last october and he knows that by joining pakatan he will get "more income" and he's paid to do so by anwar.for me umno will be better off without him and people of his type.

This is what happen when they put their interest above that of the party.
I believe there are many many more of these traitors.
They will go to any party that can offer them more.
The reality of malay politics.

tiada masalah Datuk Nasa melompat ke parti PKR.cuma agak obvious juga dia melompat ke PKR kerana "kekecewaan" semasa berada dalam UMNO.iyelah dia kalah dalam pemilihan parti dan khidmat sebagai pengerusi felcra juga tidak disambung.nampaknya macam Datuk Nasa ni "merajuk" :)

saya cukup tak setuju dengan cara Anwar mahu menubuhkan kerajaan baru dengan cara lompat melompat ni.kenapa tak tunggu sahaja pada PRU nanti dan biarkan rakyat tentukan?

janganlah jadikan alasan pengundi hantulah,SPR tak jujurlah untuk menghalalkan taktik lompat ini kerana pada 3 pilihanraya yang lepas sudah terbukti yang pembangkang boleh menang.jadi apa masalahnya?

elok saja keputusan diletakkan pada tangan rakyat.biar rakyat yang menentukan parti yang mana yang mereka mahu.
