00:00For Pahang Menteri Basar 1 Rosdy 1 Ismail, DAP's entry into the state administration has been a refreshing change.
00:10He said it has sometimes been easier to work with DAP's executive councillors than with MCA.
00:17For instance, he said DAP is more supportive of state government initiatives such as extending financial aid to civil servants.
00:25He said when DAP was not in the Pahang government, they could give aid amounting to only half a month's salary.
00:32But when DAP joined the council, he did not hear a word of protest when he said he wanted to give aid equivalent to two months' salary.
00:41Juan Rosti was responding to criticism that the Barisan National and Pakatan Harapan unity government in Pahang had become secular in nature and was not looking out for the Manu Muslims.
00:51He also praised DAP for their support and good advice in the state executive council.
00:58Juan Rosti said the political differences between UMNO and DAP should not be used as an excuse to cause division among Malays.
