00:00UMNO President Ahmad Zahir Hamidi says he is willing to withdraw his comments on the existence of a Team B within the AP if the party takes offense.
00:12During a press conference following the People's Progressive Party's General Assembly today,
00:17he said that he never meant to portray the existence of several camps in the AP,
00:22but only sought to clarify that there were conflicting statements from a small group of leaders that did not reflect the party's official stance.
00:31He said if his claim offended DAP, he will withdraw what he said,
00:35adding that it was never his intention to suggest that there are several camps in the party.
00:41Yesterday, speaking at the UMNO General Assembly,
00:44Zahid suggested that Lok had hinted to him the existence of a Team B in DAP,
00:49which is not aligned with the party's top leadership.
00:53He claimed that this faction was behind certain statements directed at former Prime Minister Najib Razak,
00:59who is currently imprisoned, and UMNO Youth Chief Dr. Akmal Saleh.
01:04However, earlier today, DAP Secretary General Lok Suh Fug denied the existence of factions within the party.
