MALAYSIA'S upcoming general election could be held as soon as January, Umno leaders hinted on Tuesday as the country's biggest political party holds its annual meeting.
Deputy Prime Minister Zahid Hamidi, who is Umno's acting deputy president, told the party wings at its launch on Tuesday evening that Umno has to receive a resounding victory at the ballot box. "The 14th General Elections draw closer ... Come January or March, or whichever month for that matter, we will brave through it," said Mr Zahid.
