Umno Information Chief Datuk Seri Azalina Othman Said says the party can no longer rely on traditional political ceramah, urging its machinery to embrace smartphones and digital platforms to reach voters more effectively.

From the original report

Move on from the microphone and use your smartphone — that is the message from Umno Information Chief Datuk Seri Azalina Othman Said to the party machinery.

According to Azalina, Umno can no longer rely solely on political ceramah (talk) to reach the people, adding that greater emphasis must instead be placed on how messages are delivered to specific target audiences, rather than simply focusing on the political narrative the party wants to push.

This is a brief of a report by another newsroom. The excerpt below is from the original.
