Khairy Jamaluddin wishes that he had told former premier Najib Abdul Razak about how the grassroots had rejected Umno following the sacking of Muhyiddin Yassin and Mohd Shafie Apdal.
"We didn't want to bell the cat,” the Umno Youth chief told Channel News Asia.
“Nobody, after Muhyiddin was purged, after Shafie was purged... Nobody wanted to acknowledge we have a problem. That was a terrible mistake on our part.
"Was there a signal? Yes, there were clear signals but we became oblivious to the signals.
"This must not happen again, we must not ever allow our leaders in Umno to be detached from reality and not ask tough questions. If we continue with our feudal mindset of protecting the leader from the truth, Umno will go extinct,” he warned.
