KUALA LUMPUR, July 7 — Umno will not be able to carry out any alternative strategy it has if it fails to get the Registrar of Societies’ approval for amendments to its constitution, a Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia law lecturer said.that Umno will be deemed as illegal if the RoS rejects the party’s constitutional amendment application, which include an amendment to defer its internal election to up to six months after the general election.

The clock is ticking for the Malay nationalist party as it was already allowed to defer its internal election last year for 18 months due to the Covid-19 pandemic.Umno’s delegates unanimously passed several resolutions to amend its constitutional amendments, including allowing internal elections after general elections, at the party's extraordinary general meeting held on May 15.

“But RoS must have a valid reason for rejecting Umno’s amendments because it had approved the constitutional amendments made by MCA and Gerakan before this, so there are precedents that have applied to other parties,” lawyer Datuk Adnan Seman was quoted as saying.
