00:00Fostering young talent within the party will be a key focus for Nick Nazmi Nick Ahmad if
00:08he wins the Vice-Presidency in the upcoming PKR polls.
00:12I think Datuk Sri Anwar likes to say that he was able to groom people like us, Rafizie,
00:20myself, Likang, Amiruddin, Izzah, Fahmi, we are all in our 40s and for a lot of us we
00:29became legislators in our 20s.
00:32But the challenge is what's next?
00:35Nick Nazmi admitted PKR previously faced challenges in finding candidates for general elections
00:40under the party's ticket.
00:42And partly last time I came out, Amir came out because we did not have enough candidates.
00:46That's the real thing.
00:48Now you have a long queue of everyone wanting to contest.
00:52How do we not become a victim of our own success?
00:55I think that is where it's crucial to continue to attract idealistic, talented, young, professional
01:02Malaysians into the party.
01:06He stressed the importance of attracting young, idealistic, professional Malaysians into the
01:10party.
01:11Nick Nazmi, Amiruddin, Negri Sembilan Menteri Besar, Datuk Seri Aminuddin Harun, Chang and
01:17Nurul Izzah Anwar have expressed their intention to contest the Vice-Presidency posts.

01:31who is also the Deputy Entrepreneur Development and Cooperatives Minister, will contest for
01:36the Vice-President post.
