Communications and Digital Minister Fahmi Fadzil has refuted allegations by certain parties that the special aid and assistance announced under the Madani Economy: Empowering the People initiative was just another political candy given in conjunction with the six state elections next month.
He said this was because the announcement on the special aid and assistance was made before the campaign period for the six state elections even started.

00:00 With the announcement by the PM yesterday,
00:04 what did he say to the politicians, especially those who are responsible for public responsibility and for the public funds?
00:11 The campaign has not yet entered the campaign time.
00:14 The campaign will officially start tomorrow after the process of selecting candidates is completed.
00:19 It is directed by the Prime Minister, the campaign time from 29 July to 12 August,
00:26 we cannot use the government's funds, we cannot deliver the so-called "sweets" of the election,
00:34 so there is no announcement of the project "Mee Segera".
00:40 So that's our discipline this time.
00:43 It was a few days before the campaign started.
00:47 I announced today, is this a "sweet" too?
00:51 This is a discipline that the government must follow.
00:56 So we cannot just ignore all the announcements.
01:00 Some even denied that the government made the announcement,
01:05 the Prime Minister made the announcement,
01:08 but immediately noticed by the netizens that he had also made a similar announcement before this.
01:15 Thank you.
01:18 I understand.
01:21 I am in love.
01:24 Thank you.
