Its chairman, Datuk Seri Idris Haron, said such a move was necessary to ensure that the party would remain strong and comprise only leaders and members who were united.

"We must stay united in everything we do... must always act as one to ensure our party can win big in the next general election.

"We don't want to have members who will fight halfheartedly for our cause because that can be the reason for the party's disappointment in the future," he told reporters after opening the Jasin Umno meeting in Lipat Kajang today.
