00:00 We must improve the economy because the vote against the government, the Malay support against the government,
00:07 partly is because of identity politics, because of the sentiment played by Perikatan Nasional,
00:14 but I also think that partly is because of the economic well-being and situation of the larger population.
00:21 So, whatever we do right now, it must go towards economic development, economic well-being.
00:28 It's not only economic growth, but growth comes with a better livelihood for the market, for the majority, for everyone.
00:40 So, if you only have economic growth, which was the case during the past regime,
00:46 where you have growth, but the people don't feel it, then you will end up losing the support of the population.
00:54 So, economic growth must come with the well-being of the ordinary citizens.
01:00 So, this is where I think the approach of the current government is looking at how to improve the livelihood,
01:06 in all aspects, in education, in housing, in transport.
01:10 You must make people feel that they are living in a better environment.
