00:00I want to share with you what has been going on in the last couple of days.
00:30Some of these Malay figures have lost their reputation.
00:34Malay people in flats,
00:40that is the poorest.
00:43In the 60s,
00:45flats were built in one room,
00:50one bathroom and one toilet.
00:53Now in 2025, they are still taking advantage of it.
00:57So we have to think about how we should do it.
01:02We can't build it, there are laws, restrictions and problems.
01:06We have to change the laws.
01:08Oh, we are afraid of the Malay people, the Malay culture.
01:12This is a really disappointing view
01:18and it betrays the Malay people.
01:20The Malay culture is still there.
01:23Strategically, we can't change it.
01:26We have to use these laws to rebuild the Malay culture in the city.
01:30If it's a mess,
01:32we can't live in a room like that for 50-60 years.
01:39We have to fight for it.
01:41I want to tell them,
01:44don't be impatient.
01:48If we want to defend the poor,
01:50the poor, the majority of Malay,
01:52as a small part of India and China,
01:55and you want to interfere,
01:57we will, if there is a meeting,
02:00we can hold a meeting in a stadium
02:02to defend the foundation of defending the fate of the Malay people.
02:08And the one who opposes is the Malay people.
02:10The use of the name of the Malay party is the party of Islam.
02:14Has it ever proposed to help the Malay people?
02:17No.
02:18Has it ever proposed to defend the fate of the Malay people?
02:22No.
02:25So we have to propose.
02:27If there is anyone who wants to be criticized,
02:29please do so.
02:33But don't betray our efforts.
02:38This is the difference
02:40between our commitment in the government.
02:44This is what we have to do.
02:53That's why I say,
02:54schools and toilets should be repaired first.
02:57If in Kuala Lumpur,
02:59repair the stalls and stalls.
03:03Because that's what the majority of Malay and poor people use.
03:07Housing, I don't care about the house,
03:0910 million, 5 million,
03:11they can build it themselves.
03:14But if we don't help build the small flats,
03:24they won't be able to build it.
03:27Imagine,
03:29as part of the Malay people,
03:32our efforts to help are not easy.
03:35Big funds,
03:37investments and actions that we take
03:40to take care of them,
03:43are made difficult.
03:45So I want to tell you,
03:47no matter what you do,
03:50we must move forward,
03:52not back down.
03:57In this matter,
03:58this is the agenda.
04:00What's the point of talking about the Malay agenda
04:03if we let the Malay take over the city?
04:07This is what is called
04:10the City Development Act
04:12that will be passed
04:14and we will continue our efforts.
