The UMNO Youth Movement (Malay: Pergerakan Pemuda UMNO; Jawi: ڤرڬرقن ڤمودا امنو) or more known simply as UMNO Youth is the youth wing of Malaysia's grand old party the United Malays National Organisation. Primarily for members aged 18 to 40, the goal of its establishment is to represent Malay and Bumiputera male youths. Since March 2023, the current UMNO Youth Chief is Merlimau state assemblyman (MLA) Muhamad Akmal Saleh.[5]
The youth wing of UMNO are separated with the women's youth wing or Puteri UMNO as well as the student wing of the party which is UMNOSiswa.[6]

^Helen Ting. "The Politics of National Identity in West Malaysia: Continued Mutation or Critical Transition? [The Politics of Ambiguity]" (PDF). Southeast Asian Studies, Kyoto University. J-Stage. p. 3/21 [33] and 5/21 [35]. UMNO came into being in 1946 under the impetus of the Anti-Malayan Union Movement based on this ideological understanding of ketuanan Melayu. Its founding president, Dato' Onn Jaafar, once said that the UMNO movement did not adhere to any ideology other than Melayuisme, defined by scholar Ariffin Omar as "the belief that the interests of the bangsa Melayu must be upheld over all else". Malay political dominance is a fundamental reality of Malaysian politics, notwithstanding the fact that the governing coalition since independence, the Alliance [subsequently expanded to form the Barisan Nasional or literally, the "National Front"], is multiethnic in its composition.
