00:00But I see that at the moment, the parliament of the Parti Bersatu has implemented their functions.
00:10Yesterday, we were in a special event to discuss the RCI tabung haji report.
00:18And that was a correct decision and different from the other parties from the PNC.
00:28Communications Minister Fahmi Fadzil has praised Bersatu MPs for taking part in the Tabung Haji RCI debate,
00:35unlike other Perikatan Nasional MPs from PAS and Wawasan who walked out.
00:40Speaking after a national day, Malaysia Day 2026 sponsorship ceremony at his ministry,
00:47Fahmi said the Bersatu MPs were right to remain in the Dewan Rakyat.
00:51The walkout came after Dewan Rakyat Speaker Johari Abdul rejected a request to postpone proceedings
00:57because Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim was unable to attend.
01:02Fahmi pointed out that the Royal Commission of Inquiry was set up in 2021 and completed in 2022,
01:07when PAS leaders and current opposition leader Hamzah Zainuddin were still members of the cabinet.
01:13He also noted that the religious affairs minister at the time was from PAS.
01:17On calls for a fresh RCI, Fahmi said the cabinet must decide whether to continue or expand the investigation,
01:24with the Young Dipertuan Agong's consent also required.
01:28The calls came after BNC Isam Isha proposed a new inquiry covering 2021 to 2025,
01:34while PH's RSN Reher wanted those responsible for Tabung Haji's financial and management problems identified.
01:41Fahmi added that the government would refer the RCI findings to the authorities for further investigation,
01:48including additional information from Second Finance Minister Amir Hamzah Azizan
01:52and Religious Affairs Minister Zulkifli Hassan.
