00:00The third thing that has been discussed today is about the recent incident at Wisma Transit
00:09involving a number of Palestinians who have been brought to Malaysia for treatment.
00:16So today, apart from the media statements that have been made by the Ministry of Defence,
00:25the Minister of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Defence are coordinating
00:39to contact the Egyptian government to try to bring the Palestinians back.
00:50However, this process is still ongoing and all medical services will continue to be provided.
01:00The government is taking this matter seriously and is considering it as a good thing
01:07for those who have been brought to Malaysia for treatment.
01:14YB, regarding the incident at Wisma Transit,
01:19is there a discussion on whether the Palestinians should be brought back to Malaysia
01:24or should they be sent back to Egypt at a certain time?
01:32Yes, this is something that has been discussed.
01:34But as I explained earlier, it involves and will be handled by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs
01:40and the Ministry of Defence.
01:42Therefore, it is up to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Defence
01:48to decide on this matter.
01:50Whether the Palestinians should be sent back to Malaysia or to other countries,
02:00will be decided later.
