GEORGE TOWN, Aug 7 —\u00a0All leaders, including those from UMNO who have been given the mandate under the Perikatan Nasional (PN) government should carry out the task entrusted to them\u00a0to the best of their ability and not playing too much politics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia (Bersatu) supreme council member Datuk Seri Mohd Redzuan Yusof said they should also focus on efforts to combat the COVID-19 pandemic and revive the country\u2019s economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mohd Redzuan, who is also a Minister in the Prime Minister\u2019s Department (Special Functions), said the current situation in the country required political leaders to sit together to find ways to solve more important\u00a0problems\u00a0in the\u00a0country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAll elected representatives\u00a0should prioritise the country\u2019s interest especially in the COVID-19 management and the economy. When there is an election, we can play politics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201c…if there is any weakness in the government, let us work together to fix it,\u201d\u00a0he told reporters after\u00a0attending a community empowerment briefing at the Penang Malaysian Civil Defence Force headquarters\u00a0here\u00a0today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He was commenting on the resignation of several ministers from UMNO after the party\u2019s Supreme Council decided to withdraw its support to the PN government recently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
