00:30Assalamu'alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh.

01:00If you look at the current youth, it will determine the direction and future of the country.

01:10Therefore, the government, through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and other agencies,

01:17and also the governments of the country,

01:19has given priority to raise awareness,

01:24to give space to them, not only to raise their voices,

01:28to organize activities, but in various activities.

01:32Recently, there was a request from them.

01:35They asked to hold a GEEK Dayak Surohan,

01:38because tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands,

01:42of young people are in the GEEK economy.

01:46The government agreed, and we will prepare the law,

01:50and God willing, it will be presented in the parliament in July.

01:55So, when we hear their voices,

01:57we try, not only to support them, but also to do our best.

02:02Last year, Muhammad Izzat asked for 5 million.

02:07I asked for 5 million.

02:09This year, he asked for more.

02:11Last year, he didn't ask for more.

02:13So, I agreed to give him 5 million.

02:16And for the young people,

02:18who are the priority,

02:20added by his ministry,

02:22and I have told NAYO, Adam Adli, and Muhammad Izzat,

02:27his program must be given priority and support.

02:32So, I agree to give this to his ministry,

02:38so that we can complete it to 10 million this year.

02:44The condition is, we must remember,

02:46we have the Javanese flag,

02:48we must have knowledge,

02:50we must make sure that we have enough information.

02:53The young people are not known for their voices,

02:57but because of their pure intentions,

03:00because of their idealism,

03:02because of their hatred of corruption and corruption,

03:06love for truth and goodness.

03:09So, we must reject narrow-mindedness,

03:13narrow-mindedness of religion that weakens us,

03:17but raise the level of religion from a good faith and good morals.

03:23This is the responsibility of the young people.

03:25The government has made a great contribution in this field,

03:29and I ask my colleagues to give importance.

03:33I don't mean to add,

03:37but believe me,

03:40Malaysia has gained the attention of the young people,

03:47who are proud of it.

03:51If we unite,

03:54Malaysia will lose its narrow-mindedness,

03:56its narrow-mindedness,

03:59and its understanding of tribalism.

04:01This country is too much.

04:03I believe that Malaysia as a country

04:06can be raised as a great country in this field.

04:12And the young people will certainly be given space in the future.

04:19And I believe that Malay-Malaysians, Malaysians of Malaysia and other associations,

04:24we will give a better space

04:26to get education, training,

04:30so that our future is more guaranteed.
