00:05 Yes, if you follow, that is his right to compete, but he will be eliminated as a judge.

01:03 He was the founder of UMNO himself.

01:05 And many more after that, until Dato' Srehanoah Ibrahim was also eliminated.

01:10 So various tribunals have been held in politics and always change.

01:18 Especially in Ampangan to decide who is worthy to be elected.

01:23 And maybe they choose a party, they don't choose an individual,

01:27 someone wants to choose an individual, it's up to them.

01:29 So that's the political atmosphere that happens every time there is an election.

01:33 Not denied.

01:38 Yes, he doesn't contact me, I don't contact him.

01:41 [Reporter] Dato' Sri, will he be subjected to action like Dato' Zuraida?

01:47 No, he has finished his term.

01:51 I thank him a thousand times.

01:53 He has completed his five years.

01:55 So he has the right to choose a party after that.

01:59 So he is only in the judiciary, he will definitely be eliminated.
