00:00In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
00:07Peace be upon you.
00:18I would like to give a message to all of you,
00:21as a political party,
00:23we should show our attitude
00:28to support the people proactively.
00:32I think what is more important is
00:34that we are not like a spring.
00:38We have to show that we are always on the ground,
00:42the Nadi Dinyutan is with the people.
00:45It means that what the people desire
00:48should be translated into our actions.
00:51It is the same as conveying the message of the people to the authorities.
00:55So I think we will act as a spring.
01:00Even though in the context of the central government or the state,
01:04regardless of who, the opposition or the government,
01:08we should have the values of the world that we support.
01:12If that is a problem,
01:15we have to find a solution.
01:18That is why it is difficult for us to bring an issue
01:22to attract the attention of the authorities.
01:26So we should be more open to listen.
01:31Because in the end, the people's problem is needed.
01:35If the people are willing to give the endorsement,
01:40the blessing to the people,
01:43that is the most important.
01:44Then we will have the foundation to fight for a chair.
01:51So I think we have to start working now.
01:56It is useless to talk about the chair,
01:59because if we don't work,
02:02we can't win.
02:04So we have to work.
02:06I am tired of being alone in the parliament.
02:09I will continue to fight.
02:11I will not stop until the people's problem is solved.
02:17I will carry out my responsibilities and obligations.
02:22Even though at one point I was criticized.
02:24It's not that we are smart,
02:26but at least we know the people's demand.
02:30At that time, what should be done.
02:32Whether I fight or not, I don't care.
02:35So for me, we have gone through a time when we became opponents.
02:39Part of the government, even though there is no seat,
02:42there was a time when there was a backbencher,
02:44there was a ministerial team,
02:46there was a minister,
02:47there was a backer,
02:48now it doesn't go anywhere.
02:50Okay, as long as this party is prosperous,
02:53this party is prosperous,
02:54we do what is right,
02:56we give our views as a sports party.
