00:00 Yesterday, the nomination process was completed.
00:04 We have organized a strategy and a working movement for the National Party.
00:11 All parties and the National Party are on the ground,
00:15 managing the polling stations with the special branches that we have established for them.
00:27 I met with them and it seems that the spirit since yesterday is quite high.
00:35 The attendance on the day of the nomination was good.
00:39 We have named our nominee who has been accepted by the National Party of Indonesia,
00:44 Brother Khairul Azhar.
00:47 This is the best nominee.
00:51 He has a lot of experience, he is quite mature, he is a local,
00:57 he knows a lot about the area of Bulu Selangor.
01:01 He is from Besatu, but he represents the National Party.
01:06 Based on the attention we have made since yesterday,
01:11 it seems that the movement is going smoothly.
01:16 In general, the acceptance of our nominee is very good.
01:23 I am not saying that it is 100% but the profile of the nominee in Kuala Kumbar Baru
01:33 is 47% of the nominees are Malay, 30% are Chinese, 18% are Indian,
01:45 5% are foreigners.
01:49 Based on the results of the last election in Kuala Kumbar Baru,
01:56 the Harapan Menang party with a majority of 4,000 votes,
02:02 we see that it is quite stable.
02:06 It is stable for almost three times of the election.
02:11 There is no increase.
02:15 So now we have decided to put a Malay nominee there,
02:21 hoping that he will receive good support from the Malay voters.
02:26 In the last PRN, the Malay voters only got 67%,
02:33 the Chinese voters got almost 100%,
02:37 while the Malay majority is large.
02:40 So we hope that with the current political, economic, and social situation in our country,
02:50 the people should be able to measure the level of effort or non-effort
03:00 of the current government.
