Though being non-committal when asked if he would contest for the presidency in the upcoming Umno party elections, Tengku Razaleigh Hamzah took a jab at the party’s acting president Datuk Sri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi for seeking Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad’s advice on how to run Umno following its loss of federal power.

At a press conference on Sunday, held following calls asking him to contest the position of president in the upcoming party polls, Tengku Razaleigh said he would not“ go crawling” to Tun Mahathir had he been acting president.
