00:07 [Indistinct chatter]
00:14 Okay, please, please.
00:15 Okay.
00:16 Sebenarnya saya tak prepare, tapi Alhamdulillah saya amat-amat bersyukur dengan keputusan pada hari ini.
00:24 Saya rasa semua bersetuju memang ada constitutional breach, okay.
00:30 Tapi ia menegakkan juga bahwa federal constitution adalah supreme dan demi untuk kebaikan Malaysia juga.
00:42 Tiada apa-apa kena-mengena dengan doctrine Islam.
00:46 Itu pun mahkamah telah memutuskan.
00:49 Okay, ia hanya mengenai kompetensi DUN, the State Legislative Assembly, sahaja.
00:58 Jadi saya buat ini bukan untuk diri saya, ya.
01:01 Saya buat ini untuk semua sebenarnya.
01:05 Dan Alhamdulillah lah setelah dikutuk, dikeji, dilaknat semua itu, Alhamdulillah.
01:14 So Alhamdulillah, saya bersyukur banyak-banyak.
01:18 [Indistinct chatter]
01:22 InsyaAllah tak ada lah, kot.
01:24 I mean, saya rasa selepas pada ini, DUN-DUN akan menggubal undang-undang yang lebih,
01:34 I think they'll be more careful in drafting the legislations.
01:39 And untuk harmonikan mahkamah syarikat, biar Yasmin lah cakap.
01:45 Yasmin? Yasmin? Okay.
01:48 So...
01:50 [Indistinct chatter]
01:53 I hope that this case will then harmonize the mahkamah syarikat with the civil courts, you know.
02:02 I think that's all.
02:04 Okay. Alright. Terima kasih.
02:07 [Indistinct chatter]
02:10 No, saya peguam. Okay?
02:13 Sebagai peguam, kami officers of the court. Alright?
02:16 Dan saya percaya bahwa memang tugas kita sebagai pengamal undang-undang,
02:22 untuk menegakkan... no, that's not the word.
02:28 Untuk protect and defend. What's protect and defend again?
02:32 Mempertahankan kedaulatan undang-undang.
02:37 Okay?
02:38 So terima kasih banyak-banyak.
02:40 Alhamdulillah, saya bersyukur sangat-sangat.
02:43 [Indistinct chatter]
02:46 Saya balik Kelantan, saya tak ada kena kecaman pun.
02:49 Semuanya menyokong saya. Alhamdulillah.
02:51 Jadi, kalau yang kata itu saya rasa itu adalah manipulasi faktor lah.
03:00 Sebab saya balik Pertubaruan, tak ada masalah pun.
03:02 Saya nak balik punggung depan.
03:04 Alright. Terima kasih.
03:07 [End]
