00:00I would like to inform you that today the Prime Minister has decided that the members of the administration,
00:10that is, the ministers and their subordinates, are not allowed to be the president of any trade union.
00:21Therefore, I, as well as Nek Nazmi, announce that I will not compete for the position of President of KLFA,
00:31meaning by force, I withdraw from competing as a candidate for president of KLFA.
00:40In addition, I have contacted Dato' Hamidin, President of FAM, to get some advice and guidance,
00:54and I believe that the election for KLFA can refer to the KLFA club.
01:01Do you know why the members of the administration are not allowed to be involved in any trade union?
01:10It was originally based on a cabinet decision in 2007,
01:18and what was decided today is that we continue with the practice of non-involvement.
