00:00Persatu President Muhyiddin Yassin has urged party members to remain steadfast in facing
00:08dirty, undemocratic and unconstitutional politics played by their rivals.
00:15In a statement in conjunction with Persatu's 8th anniversary, Muhyiddin said the party's
00:20foundation is now being openly threatened.
00:24He said Persatu's efforts to defend the rights of Malays, Buhi Putras and the position of
00:29Islam without infringing upon the rights of others as enshrined in the federal constitution
00:35are being framed as crimes relating to race, religion and royalty.
00:41Muhyiddin also claimed that the current government, which once championed the rights and freedoms
00:45of the people while in opposition, is now using instruments of the law and government
00:51institutions to suppress political opponents solely for political gain.
00:56Muhyiddin, a former prime minister, claimed trial at the Sessions Court last month to
01:01a charge of making seditious remarks at a charama in the run-up to the Ninggeri by-election.
01:08Last week, the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission raided YTL Communications' Senyuan Berhad's
01:13office in Kuala Lumpur as part of an investigation into the now-defunct RM4 billion One Bestari
01:20Net project.
01:21In 2011, YTL Communications was awarded the One Bestari Net project, which was initiated
01:27by Muhyiddin when he was education minister.
