00:00Many discourses here and overseas, even long before I became, I assume premiership, when
00:12I was teaching in Washington DC, in many of these forums, I see the problem even in United
00:21States is this obsession about terrorism without understanding the issues.
00:28We deal with the issue of terrorism among the perpetrators, but we do not understand
00:36the reasons, background, activities prior to the final act of terror, what we consider
00:47as the purveyors of terror.
00:51The issues raised, the effective, incessant propaganda, using and exploiting race, religion
01:04or territorial states or sentiments to deny rights of others, to demean, condemn and therefore
01:21to, in order to achieve these goals, perpetrate, allow for the perpetration of violence and
01:31terror.
01:32So, it means, to achieve our plan, our understanding of the characteristics that cause the violence,
01:46through efforts, as mentioned earlier, the spirit of anger because Muslims are slaughtered,
01:56raped, raped and killed, so, the group to Afghanistan or Syria, it is everywhere else,
02:10yes, maybe the reason there is patience, but the spirit is already strong and accepting
02:19of understanding from the group that has a strong attitude, for the group that is beaten,
02:27slaughtered, killed, the property is destroyed every day, then the reaction will be of course
02:34violent, and the influence is brought here, where such things do not happen, but the influence
02:43as mentioned earlier, the influence of understanding is permanent, so, I raise the issue of perveyors
02:53of violence and terror, which we have to monitor from now on, whether it is through school,
03:00through politics, through the office, through certain groups, it must be monitored, because
03:09if we do not monitor it in the beginning, it will be shocked by the action of violence,
03:19as we have witnessed in many places in the world.
03:23I admit that PDRM with a long experience, including in the Special Branch, which I know well,
03:36has its own efforts, in my discussion, it must be monitored, and this must be tidied up,
03:47including the part that is called counter-terrorism, I know that we will be attacked because we do not have an agenda,
03:56there is no political agenda here, the agenda is security and security,
04:03if we want to make a fuss that we want freedom, and let the country collapse, that is not freedom,
04:09that makes it possible for the country to be attacked,
04:14this must be understood, and the society and the people must be given an understanding,
04:22so, this plan must be adopted by the people, but it must also be explained to the people,
04:31that why do we need laws that prohibit, not prohibit the freedom, but prohibit the action towards violence,
04:42it is called pervades of terror and violence,
04:47because if we wait and let this spread, it has become consistent with the understanding,
04:58so, it is a bit late,
05:00because the Special Branch knows how hard and difficult it is to restore the understanding of the people who have been attacked with one view,
05:11it takes time,
05:14just like how it takes time to become an overbearing person,
05:18it takes months, years,
05:22so, to clean up the understanding again, it will also take time,
05:27that is why it is reasonable to monitor, so that it does not become a disease that is transmitted among us,
05:39I take the view in the government, the government's criticism,
05:43from the economic, political, international basis,
05:47it is allowed, and the parliament, as you know,
05:52the parliament gives all the space for them to rise up,
05:57but in our country, of course, there is a restriction,
06:00just like all the other countries,
06:03there is no country that gives the freedom to incite so that there is a split among them,
06:13there is no country that allows a group that demands a small or big part of the country to leave this country,
06:24there is none,
06:26that is why the American Civil War happened from the beginning of history,
06:34so, I hope that the plan that was launched today will specifically play the role of PCVE,
06:49I don't want to mention it,
06:54that must be given guidance,
07:01because the country does not try to ignore it.
