00:00P.K.R. remains committed to carrying out institutional changes.
00:06This is what P.K.R. Vice President Niknasmin Nik Ahmad said in an interview with Selected
00:12Media, adding that the unity government had not failed completely in introducing reforms.
00:18He cited the successful constitutional amendment granting citizenship to children born to mothers
00:24of foreign spouses as being part of P.K.R.'s reform agenda.
00:28I understand out there, they will say that we should do more. It's not moving fast enough.
00:35And I can understand the concerns but I think that we have done some many significant things.
00:41Just a small tweak like the Prime Minister's question time, you know, as far as I remember,
00:46we haven't seen a lot of Prime Minister that bother turning up in Parliament as what Dato' S. Anwar has been doing.
00:52Partly because of PMQT but on other days also he sometimes he'll drop by.
00:56That shows that Parliament as an institution is given more respect, is taken more seriously.
01:02Niknasmin said the Prime Minister had to manage various demands from coalition partners while steering the country through tough economic challenges.
01:11The fact that this is not a PH government means that there are certain challenges that we encounter, there are certain limits to what the government can do.
01:20In terms of the economy, we have made the big decisions, the big difficult decisions including retargeting of subsidies.
01:28There are a lot of nervous ministers when we were discussing about this but PM was firm that we had to do this.
