NEW YORK, Sept 26<\/strong> — As speculation intensifies as to when the 15th general election (GE15)\u00a0 will be called, Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob said\u00a0that he has yet to decide when to dissolve Parliament.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The prime minister said any decision on the dissolution of Parliament will depend on the outcome of discussions by UMNO\u2019s top leadership on Sept 30.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOn the 30th (Sept) evening, there are the Top 5 and political bureau meetings, and then at night the Supreme Council meeting. So let\u2019s wait,\u201d<\/em> he told a media conference on Sunday at the end of his visit to New York, where he had addressed the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ismail Sabri, who is a UMNO vice-president, said he has yet to receive any information on the agenda outlined for the Supreme Council meeting.<\/p>\n\n\n

\u201cI myself do not know the agenda of the meeting and other details. So we can only discuss on that night itself,\u201d<\/em> he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

UMNO’s “Top 5” refers to the president, deputy president and three vice-presidents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Asked if he has found the inspiration for when he wants to dissolve Parliament, the prime minister replied with a brief \u201cnot yet\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ismail Sabri said while taking a stroll around New York\u2019s famed Central Park, he was amazed at how the 832-acre park that was situated in the middle of a city could be well maintained and preserved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He went on to say that there would now certainly be proposals for a similar park to be developed (in Malaysia) as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI have now found the inspiration on how to preserve our green areas.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHowever, as for the election, I have yet to find any (inspiration),\u201d<\/em> he said with a smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
