He said the topic was discussed to ensure that the campaigns throughout the election period are carried out in a positive manner.
"A lot was discussed on the upcoming polls, on management and the dos and don’ts.
"The ethical practices discussed for example, was to encourage positive campaigns, not negative efforts of attacking candidates in UMNO. The smear campaigns will be observed not only by us in UMNO but also outsiders... and we don’t want that, " he said when met after the MT meeting which was chaired by UMNO president Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.
Commenting on the response to the party polls this time, Isham said it had been good thus proving the continuous growth of democracy in the party.
"To date the number of nomination forms received has been very encouraging which means many are interested in running for positions in UMNO," he said. - BERNAMA
