There is a saying, when the DAP opens the funds for the victims of the fire,
00:09
there are those who say, why not directly help from the government?
00:13
Because the DAP is part of the party in the government.
00:16
That's the mindless people.
00:18
This is a disaster, even if people want to help, they have been crushed.
00:21
It's better if he has time, it's better if he thinks about how to help the victims.
00:26
We help because various parties, as I said,
00:29
the government has the responsibility to help.
00:32
Private companies have private companies to help.
00:34
We also have many supporters asking how they can help.
00:37
Because there are those who are not.
00:39
Not every effort is successful, they can share it with everyone.
00:44
There are those who want to donate RM50, RM100,
00:47
how do they want to donate?
00:48
So we open the funds because there are requests.
00:51
There are requests from many people asking us how they want to donate.
00:55
So if the big companies are able, they will continue to give to the victims.
01:00
But there are those who may want to do something,
01:04
but in a smaller amount.
01:08
So they won't come and give RM5, RM10 per person.
01:13
They have gathered with us.
01:15
That's why they ask us to open the funds.
01:18
And we help the people.
01:22
So for those who are violent, I want to tell them,
01:25
it's a big sin.
01:27
If they want to help the victims, it's a big sin.
01:31
So it's better if they save their energy,
01:33
think about how to help the people.
01:35
If they don't want to help, just keep quiet.
