PETALING JAYA: Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim is expected to attend a meeting at Umno’s Menara Dato’ Onn office today, marking the first time he will set foot in the building since he was expelled by the party 25 years ago.
He is expected to arrive at 8.30pm to chair the unity government’s first secretariat meeting.
According to Berita Harian, a spokesman for the secretariat confirmed that the prime minister will be in attendance.
The meeting tonight will be attended by Umno and Barisan Nasional leaders, as well as leaders from Pakatan Harapan, Gabungan Rakyat Sabah, Gabungan Parti Sarawak and Warisan.
In the last Umno general assembly, president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi said the secretariat would be headquartered at Menara Dato’ Onn.
He also said Umno Youth chief Asyraf Wajdi Dusuki was heading the secretariat.
Among other things, the secretariat aims to ensure the continuity of the unity government, including attending to matters of political cooperation.
