00:00 "Discussing the elevation of Bhoomi Bhutra rights does not negate non-Bhoomi Bhutra rights,"

00:07 says Amno Secretary General Ashraf Wajdi Dusuki.

00:10 Instead, Ashraf said, the government is focusing on effectively strategizing to empower its

00:15 agenda for the majority of the population, elevating its dignity.

00:20 He also said there was no need to politicize the Bhoomi Bhutra Economic Congress, as the

00:25 latest statistics released by the Statistics Department showed that 70.1% of Malaysians

00:31 are Bhoomi Bhutras.

00:32 Meanwhile, Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim previously said the government also wanted the Chinese

00:37 and Indian Chambers of Commerce to take part in the Congress.

00:41 Following Anwar's directive, Ashraf said invitations to the Congress had been sent to all political

00:47 parties.

00:48 This comes after Past Information Chief Amat Fadli Shari said the party had not yet received

00:53 an official invitation to the Congress.

00:56 On February 14, Fadli said the party was awaiting an official invite to decide on their attendance,

01:01 responding to Deputy Prime Minister Ahmad Zayed Hamidi's remarks that the Congress was

01:06 open to all, regardless of political affiliation.

01:09 However, Ashraf said he has not received any replies to the invitation.
