Adam Adli reminds AMK Congress delegates to highlight motions that benefit party, govt
JOHOR BARU: Angkatan Muda Keadilan (AMK) chief Adam Adli Abdul Halim has reminded the 2024/2025 AMK National Congress delegates to highlight motions that will contribute to the formation of party and government policies during the debate session. He said the motions presented should be based on real issues and should not be limited solely to the internal scope of the party. Adam Adli said this at a press conference after delivering his keynote address at the congress, which is themed "Membangun Madani, Menuju Reformasi", here today. On concerns about potential internal division within the PKR following the new leadership election, Adam Adli, who is also the deputy youth and sports minister, said that based on previous election experience, he is confident that such a situation will not occur. "What is most important is how, after the contest, we close ranks. "The PKR elections are open and that's why they are often seen as heated, but I can give an assurance that everyone who is contesting is extremely loyal to the party's struggles," he said. The three-day 2024/2025 PKR National Congress began yesterday with the simultaneous opening of the AMK and Wanita wings, to be followed by a keynote speech and the official opening of the congress by party president and Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim tonight. The congress also features the party's leadership election for the 2025-2028 term, covering the Central Leadership Council (MPP), Central AMK Leadership Council, and Central Women's Leadership Council, which is held from 8am to 5pm. A total of 251 candidates are contesting in the election, comprising 104 nominations for the MPP, 85 candidates for the AMK Leadership Council and 62 for the Women's Leadership Council. – Bernama

PKR polls: Youth wing must be a key part of nation-building, says Adam Adli
JOHOR BARU: PKR's Angkatan Muda Keadilan (AMK) members have been told to use the youth wing as a forum for young people to contribute to national development. AMK chief Adam Adli Abdul Halim (pic) said every member must proactively encourage youths' involvement in nation-building efforts. "Reflect on what (you) can contribute, whether small or big. This is my challenge to you. Don't wait for instructions, for a position, or for a title. "Take a different approach. Diligently continue our advocacy work, think of new policies and strategies and open important discourses, especially on the fate of the youth,' he said here on Friday (May 23). He was delivering his keynote address as AMK chief in conjunction with the movement's national congress, themed "Membangun Madani, Menuju Reformasi'. The event was also attended by PKR vice-president Nurul Izzah Anwar and AMK deputy chief Muhammad Kamil Abdul Munim, who is also the political secretary to the Finance Minister. Adam Adli, who is also Deputy Youth and Sports Minister, said AMK members must equip themselves with knowledge of world affairs. "We are the youth wing to the ruling party… in general terms, the main business of a political party is to win elections. "As a ruling party, our responsibility now goes beyond just contesting and winning elections. "Develop the country as well as its people and meet the responsibilities and hopes placed on us, not just fulfil election pledges," he said. The Hang Tuah Jaya MP Member of Parliament added that AMK must also actively train its members as future leaders. "Identify hidden talents, organise discussions and teach about the party's values and history. "Don't just be proud to have many followers but imbue them with the party's spirit. "We must emerge as the hope of the people ... so that they will have confidence in us," he said, adding that AMK now has more than 260,000 members in over 190 divisions nationwide. Voting for the party's central leadership positions, as well as the AMK and Wanita PKR (women's wing) leadership councils, is ongoing today and will conclude at 5pm. The results will be officially announced on Saturday (May 24). – Bernama
