00:00Assalamualaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh

00:05And Salam Sejahtera

00:30There are those whose income is one million a month, one million ringgit a month

00:35Electricity subsidy, given. Oil subsidy, given.

00:38Patient. Not patient.

00:41Doesn't make sense.

00:43Continued.

00:45So this is what I do.

00:47When we withdraw the subsidy from him,

00:50only then can we help the traders.

00:54Dato Zainal said, okay, help.

00:56Where do I get the money from?

01:01From saving the country's expenditure.

01:03Where do I save it from?

01:05Rich people, don't give charity.

01:08Subsidy, give it to the poor.

01:11Now it's all about breathing.

01:13That's back to the investigation.

01:15But we want those who take it,

01:17those who can read this thing,

01:20we want it to be worth the price.

01:22Those who import properly, that's all.

01:24I've been talking about this cart for a long time.

01:27What does this cart mean?

01:29It means a small group takes care of him.

01:31Not the rich people.

01:33So we have to understand why this investigation is being done.

01:37Anyone, without exception.

01:39If there's an SPRM case, they go in.

01:42If there's a crime case, the police go in.

01:45It doesn't matter to them.

01:47What position? What rank?

01:50Government company or private company?

01:53Breathing?

01:55It's true, I'm free.

01:57But under the jurisdiction of the Minister of Agriculture and Food Security.

02:01That this is a treasury case.

02:03That's the treasury of the current chairman, the Prime Minister.

02:07But I don't stop the investigation.

02:09Whether there was a case before, this is a case before.

02:11But if it's a case now,

02:13as long as there's a report,

02:15whether there's a Prime Minister, a chairman or not.

02:17If it's wrong, investigation.

02:19If it's wrong, claim.

02:21If it's wrong, law. I don't care.

02:23Only then can we govern with justice.
