00:00 I would like to take this opportunity to record my appreciation and gratitude
00:06 to the former Minister of Human Resources, Sotera Siwakumar,
00:11 for his service and work during the past year.
00:18 He has made a statement to accept the decision from the Ministerial Council.
00:25 It is an appreciated and appreciated attitude by the party.
00:33 I would also like to record that for Sotera Ram Kapal Singh,
00:38 he willingly gave way when he knew that Sotera Gobind would be appointed as Minister-General.
00:49 And because of his brotherly relationship with Sotera Gobind, he felt that it was inappropriate
00:59 for the two brothers to serve as Ministers and Chief Ministers.
01:05 So, once again, I would like to thank Sotera Ram Kapal,
01:09 even though he has contributed a lot and has made many changes
01:15 and helped the Minister of the Ministry of Finance, Datuk Sri Azadina,
01:19 in drafting several reformations of the law and also drafting several new laws.
01:26 Many tasks have been implemented throughout the past year.
01:29 But he took the attitude to sacrifice, to vacate his position,
01:37 so as not to give room for critics of the DAP party,
01:46 who said that we are promoting nepotism.
01:48 So, there is no issue of nepotism here.
01:52 He gave way because Sotera Gobind, who is his brother,
01:59 was appointed as Minister-General, so he willingly gave way and vacated his position.
02:06 So, that is a spirit that I think is very important
02:11 and the party also records appreciation for his sacrifice.
02:18 Photo. - Photo. - Thank you.
