As the state of emergency continues, several UMNO youth leaders have come out to urge their party president, Datuk Seri Zahid Hamidi, to step down as he continues to face court cases on charges of corruption. We speak to two UMNO youth leaders, Ikmal Hazlan Ikmal Hisham and Shaqib Shahrilnizam, about their views on this, and how they would like to see UMNO rejuvenate itself and better appeal to youth voters, and speak up on issues that matter to young Malaysians.
