KUANTAN: Barisan Nasional must change its approach while continuing to serve the people after losing the Kuala Terengganu by-election, deputy Umno Youth chief Khairy Jamaluddin said yesterday.
He said it was important for BN to improve its image and election machinery as its main task now is to win the next general election.
"This should be a good lesson for us and we must use it to win big in the next general election," he said after visiting the family of Zahari Baharom, who died of a heart attack last October.
Baharom, 34, was the Balok Pine Umno branch chief. He leaves a wife, Normala Fauzi, 27, and daugther, Puteri Izean Qistina, 4.
Khairy said it was wrong to point fingers after BN's defeat as various factors had contributed to this.
"If, as the people claim, the candidate is the main reason, then it will be quite easy to solve the problem.
"But the fact is there are various factors involved and we must shoulder the responsibility together and improve our performance," he said, adding that the lower voter turnout may have also contributed to the defeat.
Khairy said BN must also win the support of the younger generation as the coalition's future depended on it.
At the same time, he said Umno members must continue serving the people, especially the underprivileged.
"Our candidate (Datuk Wan Ahmad Farid Wan Salleh) still secured more than 30,000 votes during this trying moment in Malaysian politics.
"It proves that we still have support at the grassroots level."
Khairy gave a cash donation to Normala and her father-in-law to help them start a small business.

I dunno. I just couldn't laugh no more. Couldn't cry either.
Some people are blessed with thick skin. And some are blessed with good fortune as well. Whether their fortune are blessed, well your guess is as good as mine.
Will we see some minor nips and tucks or will we get to watch creepy Jackos in the making? Will these moves be of any use? To the ruling front? Or anyone for that matter? Will they be in vain? And another moronic front taking over? Hmmm...
