00:00Assalamualaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh and Salam Sejahtera
00:09As a step to save the country from the weakening of the system
00:18due to a series of people who illegally seize property
00:26as you can see, now, every day, the PDRM still travels with Customs or Immigration
00:37to make sure the country is safe
00:41When we say safe, it means billions of ringgit are saved
00:45for what?
00:46Like a lot of subsidies
00:48Our priority is the people
00:51And in this context, I say, the PDRM
00:55I have instructed and given assurances
01:00such as the SPRM and the authorities
01:03fighting corruption
01:05The PDRM and other authorities must be firm
01:10in taking action against any criminal
01:13and any group
01:16whether they are officials, politicians, or ordinary citizens
01:20And this is one of the assurances that I make
01:25because the country will not be safe
01:28if we are not transparent
01:32and act professionally
01:35and take firm action
01:39against any crime
01:43or corruption
01:45And this is our assurance
01:48Even though sometimes people are angry and complain
01:51when it is too late
01:53when it is revealed
01:56Not everything can be done quickly
02:01If we want to be transparent, professional, and fair
02:05then let the corruption be tidied up
02:07Not to protect anyone
02:09but to ensure justice can be established
02:12This is what I want to emphasize
02:15even though I am not directly related to the event
02:19of the Sukan Negara
02:22But there is a reason why Ali became a victim
02:29of the Sukan and its impact on people's lives
