00:00I would like to say thank you to all the members of parliament who are still healthy and active in this country.
00:46However, our lawyers have briefed us and stated that one of our demands for our accounts to be handed over to us again,
00:58to be re-activated, is to comply with the law.
01:05Which is related to the fact that they can only hold it for 12 months.
01:13That is not appropriate.
01:15But after 12 months, they still freeze the accounts.
01:21They don't sitar, but freeze the accounts for no reason.
01:26We believe that this is an act that violates the law.
01:32In fact, it is seen as a misuse of power.
01:35What should not be done by law,
01:38is that any agency, including the SPRM, cannot violate the law.
01:43Therefore, our demands in this court are justified.
01:47Because as an organization, we are not subject to any punishment or charged.
01:55BESATU has never been charged for any wrongdoing.
01:59My question is different.
02:01BESATU is an organization.
02:03And as a large political organization,
02:06how are we going to live if the government acts like this?
02:11Even if there is a media club and the accounts are closed,
02:15you people cannot do anything.
02:17And you can't survive.
02:19This party is smart.
02:22Even if there is no money, we still have to collect a little.
02:25Aren't we ashamed?
02:27DB told us earlier how you have to collect from members.
02:31And in the end, we are able to pay for our collection here.
02:36It costs us about RM400,000 to do that.
02:39It's not cheap.
02:40So how are we going to manage our accounts?
02:43If our accounts are valid, they cannot be used.
02:47Even if we want to open a new account,
02:49it cannot be used.
02:51It cannot be verified.
02:52That is very bad.
02:55For me, that is an act that violates the law.
03:00And that is why it cannot be continued.
03:12We have been thinking about it.
03:14We had a discussion with a lawyer the other day.
03:16We agreed to take action against the SPRM.
03:20Because they are the one who directed the bank
03:23that is ready to issue an account request for us to use.
03:27They did not allow it.
03:29After that, they wanted to open a new account.
03:31They did not allow it.
03:33This is cruel.
03:34So we feel it's not fair.
03:37I have discussed it with the lawyers.
03:41We can take action against the authorities
03:45who are responsible.
03:46And secondly, we can take action against the bank
03:49that cannot issue an account request.
03:52Our expenses cannot be paid.
