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
