00:00Although there are various views and opinions from political analysts and law enforcement officers,
00:10we think that it should be decided by the court first.
00:19And this court decision should be respected.
00:24And in the meantime, we are waiting for the court's decision.
00:31For the national election, our loss is only a little more than 800.
00:38We think that even if there is a small election,
00:46we are still an underdog in this area.
00:53However, we must be prepared if the court decides that this small election should be held.
01:02And so far, our preparation is from the point of view of collecting the latest data
01:11and moving the army to the local level.
01:16So, does this mean that BN is ready to put a candidate on the seat?
01:21Even before, we lost only 810 votes.
01:25So, we know that the current candidate supports the government.
01:30So, is there a chance for him to represent the government?
01:34That can be considered.
01:38And I think our advice is that in any place where there is a small election,
01:46if the candidate comes from the party component in the Madani government,
01:53we give priority.
01:55And what happened in many places, we thank the candidates of BN
02:03and also the government.
02:08And this is what we are doing in Sungai Bakar and it is not impossible to do in Dunenggiri.
