He had earlier created quite a buzz in Twitter when he sent a tweet about taking a haitus from politics.
“Hope to help win more youth support for BN (Barisan Nasional) in 2011 & work hard preparingfor elections. Then I’m taking a break from politics. Can’t wait,” Khairy wrote on Twitter.
His tweet generated much response from his followers who wondered if the Rembau MP was not going to defend his seat in the 13th general election.

“I would like to ‘stand down’ as they say in the UK. A couple of things I’d like to do before it gets too late,” tweeted Khairy in response to a follower who asked him what he meant by a “break”.
Asked how long he planned to be away from politics, Khairy replied: “Indefinite. Not sure what I will be doing. A few things I want to do like go back to school.”
Khairy first mentioned the possibility of not defending his seat in an interview with a news portal last July.
In that interview, he clarified his statement a day later, saying he was only mulling the possibility and that he had yet to make a firm decision on the matter.
Who pressured him to do so? and what was the underlying reason behind the move?
