00:00Regarding Pekasar Juga, yesterday in his drama, he said that the government association kept the rice locally and distributed it during the PRK.
00:12Maybe you can comment on this.
00:14We did not distribute the rice during the PRK.
00:18The distribution of rice was done before the name of the candidate.
00:23Before the name of the candidate was Ban Tuan Kasih Johor,
00:27we can distribute anything before the name of the candidate.
00:31And it has been given.
00:33We will not give it.
00:35We do not have a provision to give during the campaign.
00:39We give a provision and we have implemented it before the campaign.
00:43Before the campaign, we can give anything.
00:46It does not violate any election regulations.
00:51The Malaysian government has been playing the sentiment issue.
00:55Where the president of Pekasar Juga, Mr. Hassan,
00:58yesterday in his speech,
01:00has accused that Malaysia will fall into the hands of China
01:05following the existence of the Porosity project
01:07which brings benefits to the people of China.
01:10What is your view on the issue that has been played?
01:15Porosity, where is the condition that we want to go to their citizens?
01:19There is none.
01:20It is a slander.
01:22They are not citizens of the country
01:24even though they bought the property in Porosity.
01:27All of this has been answered before.
01:30But it has been repeated.
01:32This is a slander.
01:34We do not like slander to be spread during the election.
01:39It is a very irresponsible act.
