00:00Yesterday, there was an explosion, there was a pornography, there was a murder that was done in Malaysia, right?

00:06Is there any ministry that has accepted the complaint?

00:09We, whatever the claim, the complaint, the pornography, we take it seriously.

00:15That's why we work together with all ministries,

00:19both the Ministry of Home Affairs, Ministry of Communications, our own ministry, including the Ministry of Women's Affairs.

00:26In that context, I think anything that involves a complaint and a lawsuit must go through an authority process.

00:34And advocacy on our level, we do it through awareness and awareness programs

00:41so that our children are not involved in this pornographic activity.

00:46We take it seriously, and we are responsible to ensure that our children are protected,

00:53especially children in school levels.

00:55As long as there are no more complaints.

00:57I will proceed from time to time.

01:01Even if there is, the discussion is to involve us at the level of the Ministry and the authorities

01:06so that we can build from the perspective of safety.

01:10Because when we say children in school, it is safety.

01:12So we have to prioritize safety first.

01:15Is there a PM who wants to raise the level of RMT?

01:21We have to understand RMT in one aspect.

01:25It helps in one aspect to cultivate healthy eating among our children.

01:33The second is the program of intervention for poverty.

01:37To ensure that B40 children get sufficient income when they are in school.

01:48The narrative must be correct.

01:51And we work with the Ministry of Health of Malaysia

01:54to ensure that the menu fulfills all the nutrition and needs of our children

01:59and is assisted by nutrition experts.

02:03So we have 20 RMT menus that change their menu every day for our children

02:09and it must be monitored and ensured that the nutrition is met with the needs of the children.

02:15The next is how we see that RMT must meet the needs.

02:21It must be monitored by the authorities.

02:23And after we see that there are a few things that we need to improve,

02:28the RMT taskforce has been established by the Ministry of Health of Malaysia

02:33and we will hold a meeting on 1 March.

02:351 March next year, we will hold a meeting on the report on RMT.

02:42So that includes the issue of cost in the radar that needs to be discussed,

02:48the issue of implementation,

02:50the issue of whether the children are really affected

02:54by providing their needs after this program,

03:02as well as monitoring and provision.

03:05So all of this will be discussed in the report on RMT.

03:11Okay, thank you. Happy New Year. See you next year.
