PETALING JAYA: Long-serving Besut MP and Umno member Tan Sri Idris Jusoh (pic) has announced that he will not be competing in the upcoming 15th General Elections (GE15).

The former Terengganu mentri besar said his decision to step down was to give the party’s younger candidates an opportunity to compete which he believed would rejuvenate the party while being more popular among the voters.
