‘PASSION TO HELP PEOPLE VITAL IN POLITICS’

KUALA LUMPUR: Umno secretarygeneral Datuk Seri Tengku Adnan Tengku Mansor yesterday advised Malaysian students abroad not to pursue a career in politics if they do not have the passion to help the people and develop the nation. He said some of these students only engaged in politics because they wanted to get certain rewards, such as projects. “Politics is not a career ... there must be passion to help the people and country. If they have the passion to help the people, then they can become elected representatives upon their return.” He also advised students abroad not to be easily influenced by the information on social media if they did not know it was authentic. – Bernama
