00:00This is a sign of a strong relationship between me and Malaysia.
00:30We've been together since we were young, and we've never been apart.
00:37We've been together since we were young, and we've never been apart.
00:44We've been together since we were young, and we've never been apart.
00:51We've been together since we were young, and we've never been to school together in America.
01:06At that time, I was still thin.
01:11So this relationship is long.
01:13I also feel that Malaysia is my hometown.
01:17Because I grew up in Malaysia, I went to school in Malaysia, and my family is in Malaysia.
01:25My family, my parents, were very close to the Malaysian founders, Tunggu Abdul Rahman and Turun Razak.
01:36So we have a lot of emotional relations with Malaysia.
01:41So I often go to Malaysia.
01:43But after I left Brazil, it wasn't as easy as before.
01:48Now there are a lot of protocols, a lot of controls.
01:55So I'm sorry if it's difficult for you.
02:00Malaysia and Indonesia, in my opinion, have the same interests.
02:08We are Asian.
02:11We have a blood relationship.
02:13We have a cultural relationship.
02:16We even have an ethnic relationship.
02:22If I'm not mistaken, there are many Malaysian leaders who still have family in Indonesia.
02:32This must make the relationship between Malaysia and Indonesia more special.
02:39We are a whole country.
02:41We are a country of one culture.
02:43Most of our people have the same religion.
02:46Our language actually comes from the same language.
