00:00What can you do with your support?
00:04To me, basically, I'm open to meet up anyone, even from different groups, even from those other minority groups.
00:12I'm open to meet everyone for the sake of listening.
00:16Because I always press for an open conversation, especially in Parliament.
00:20There are so many things that I press for in Parliament, which are deemed as sensitive,
00:25but I tell them that that's the right way to move forward.
00:28You know, we must believe in the value of unity and diversity.
00:32If you keep on pressing, surprise, one day you can blow up.
00:37And that's something which I feel that you shouldn't stop people from voicing out.
00:42But it doesn't mean that when we listen to people, we agree to them.
00:46We acknowledge them. We listen to them.
00:49To show that we respect your views, but it doesn't mean that we agree to you.
00:58Let's start your view.
00:59Let's do it.
01:00I appreciate it.
01:01Let's go.
01:02How do I see?
01:03Let's do it.
01:04We see it.
01:05All right.
01:07Let's go.
01:08I'm sorry.
01:09I'm sorry.
01:11Yeah.
01:12All right.
01:13I'm sorry.
01:14Let's do it.
01:15Let's do it.
01:17You can do it.
