00:00We have also discussed at the national level to provide support that is not divided, there is no problem with the candidate, in fact, there is no problem in the context of cooperation.
00:16And we have also held several series of negotiations to ensure that every unit is ready and also ready to move with the capabilities at the national level together with the support of our hope alliance with the existing candidates, good candidates.
00:35And God willing, we will work together to ensure that Mr. Ujo Hari's candidate, who is also not alien to us, including me, many alumni too, we are sure that God willing, he will be able to provide the best service to the people of Sungai Pakam.
00:55That is the commitment of our national alliance.
00:59Kepaduan! Kedah!
01:03At the time of the launch of the military and the name of the candidate, the Minister of Trade and Industry has made an offer that the water problem in Pulau Pinang will be solved because not far from here there is a wastewater treatment facility that is expected to be ready in September.
01:2358 million, the cost of water treatment per day is 35 million liters.
01:29And that is used for him, the candidate in Singapore, to be able to solve that the water there can be distributed here.
01:36That's why he said he would be ready to distribute water.
01:40Actually, the capacity of the treatment is enough to cover the south area of ​​Kedah only.
01:47So let the general project by the Prime Minister, water from the Korean River can be distributed to the south coast, including in terms of long-term water supply.
01:59So I believe that the leader of Singapakab is clear about that.
02:03Mr. Ujo Hari represents the government of Kepaduan.
02:08And our offer to the leader of Singapakab is to elect Mr. Ujo Hari, meaning to elect to be with the government of Kepaduan in Pulau Pinang and in the central level.
02:19It was different when the state election was held on August 8 last year.
02:24At that time, the National Assembly was still imagining winning six states, the central government fell.
02:31So it's not a little bit like the headline.
02:36But when the decision ended with the same three, three states won, three states lost.
02:41Then the situation showed that the government of Kepaduan, both Pulau Pinang and the central government, remained compact, remained united, and remained functioning well.
02:54So it's different from the scenario of the state election, when there are still people who are imagined that the government will change.
03:03So now the clarity has already existed.
03:07The situation is now far different.
03:10Therefore, although we have optimism, but the choice of power means that we have to reach out to as many voters as possible.
03:21And we are able to do that because this is a clear proof of the mobilization of supporters out there, a true reflection of the presence of supporters of the parties in the government of Kepaduan.
03:34So based on that, I share with the media three things. Thank you.
03:51Thank you.
