00:00In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

00:04This convention is important

00:06because it unites the leaders of all levels

00:12from the highest leaders' assemblies to the parties

00:18that will discuss in a serious manner

00:22the idealism and struggle of the parties that we have supported

00:26since this party was formed

00:28Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to give you some advice

00:36First, I respect the decision of our party last year

00:41which wanted me to lead the party for one more month

00:48I have told you that I want to be a leader

00:52but the party made the decision and I respect it

00:56Therefore, I take this responsibility to lead the party

01:00no matter how it was decided by the ladies and gentlemen

01:05who are the highest body that made this party's decision

01:13Secondly, because those who decided for me to continue leading this party are my relatives

01:20Therefore, it is the duty of my relatives to listen

01:24to my advice as a party leader

01:29Can I or can't I?

01:30Can I?

01:31Can I?

01:32Can I?

01:33A retreat held by our party at the highest level a few months ago

01:38the principle is to ask me to meet with the highest leaders and discuss

01:48to find a way to avoid conflicts and divisions in the party and in the election

01:55meaning they asked me not to shake hands but to act, to negotiate

02:06Now I want to say that I have met almost everyone

02:10I have negotiated with them

02:13and I have received inspiration

02:15so that we can avoid conflicts and divisions in the party

02:24When I listened to the discussion with President Timbalan, Dato' Peja

02:32President Naib Naib, Dato' Ronald and Dato' Radhi

02:36with Dato' Stoksa Agong, Dato' Amzah

02:39and many more

02:41So, more than what was decided by the retreat to discuss

02:45and the highest level also said so

02:47I met almost everyone

02:49So, I have done my duty

02:51and if the decision that I have in my mind

02:57I will announce it in a while

03:00before the election

03:03I hope our party will remain strong

03:06I want to give an image to the people there

03:11that unity is leadership

03:15that there is a strong spirit of struggle

03:17ready to work together to help each other

03:23and I think this will be a good image

03:27and God willing, it will give more support to the people

03:30to our unity party

03:33and when the time comes, I will announce it

03:36I hope everyone will give 100% support to the decision

03:41Is that okay?

03:43Is that okay?

03:48So, now I will return to the text of my speech

03:51that is off the text

03:53but very important

03:54Is that right?

03:55It seems that the front is a little brighter

04:02Thank you
