Zaid Ibrahim, 'a recycled leader' - Khairul Azwan

UMNO Youth vice-chief Khairul Azwan Harun has described former minister in the Prime Minister's Department, Datuk Zaid Ibrahim, who joined the DAP on Tuesday, as a "recycled leader".

He said Zaid was initially an UMNO member, then joined Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) before taking over the leadership of Parti Kesejahteraan Insan Tanah Air (KITA).

"I think he is a recycled leader who is being used by DAP. I do not know for what purpose.

"I hope Zaid will remain with DAP until he dies, it is just my suggestion but he wants to jump ship again, it would be really weird," he said.

He was speaking to reporters after leading a Perak BN Youth delegation to call on Perak Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Dr Zambry Abdul Kadir at Wisma UMNO Perak here, Tuesday.
