Umno general assembly: Will Nenggiri spark a revival?

Umno is gathering for its 2024 annual conference, re-energised from its recent victory in reclaiming the Nenggiri seat in the Kelantan state assembly seat from Perikatan Nasional with a healthy majority.

Will Nenggiri prove to be a turning point for the waning party – or was it just an isolated victory in a traditionally strong Umno seat?
