First of all, I would like to say thank you to the media for coming to the first day of Chinese New Year
00:11
to celebrate the New Year together with the movement,
00:16
together with the leaders of national associations, and also together with the people.
00:22
There are national associations, party components, united, PAS, MIPP movement,
00:29
anyone who thinks they can win, or if they have a grassroots,
00:36
there are leaders, they can participate, but it can be accepted or not, this is another story.
00:43
But for the movement, we believe,
00:48
yes, we are there.
00:53
As I said, we used to be the Chief Minister of Sabah.
01:00
Therefore, we are not a small party.
01:05
We do have our grassroots.
01:08
There is a movement structure there for the campaign.
01:13
In the past, we did not compete in the PRN,
01:17
because at that time, we said we only supported national associations,
01:22
and for the national associations that competed.
01:26
But this time, the movement has made a decision,
01:30
we will compete under the national association in the PRN Sabah.
01:36
How many seats have you proposed and which seats do you think the movement should?
01:41
Instructions are already given to all the states that they have to focus one parliament, two dunes.
01:48
But for this Sabah, also the same.
01:51
They have to focus one parliament, two dunes.
01:54
So that's why, in order to reply you,
01:58
that means it's two dune seats that we already confirmed that we are going to contest,
02:04
even though we already identified our candidates already.
02:07
But whether it can be accepted by the national association or not,
02:12
that one we have to discuss.
