00:00Welcome, Your Honourable Dr Seri from Haji Muhammad Bin Haji Hussain.
00:08Excellencies, Distinguished Guests,
00:11Terrorism in all its forms transcends borders, race and religion.
00:17It disrupts, destabilises economies and fractures the social fabric of the nations.
00:28As terrorist groups continue to evolve and adopt increasingly sophisticated tactics,
00:35our response must also be innovative and adaptive.
00:41This is where Sko comes in.
00:45What truly sets it apart is the innovative integration of artificial intelligence AI technology.
00:55This AI capability allows us to generate concise summaries of articles and reports,
01:03enabling practitioners, policymakers and researchers to access relevant information quickly and efficiently.
01:13By streamlining the research and retrieval process,
01:17AI ensures that users can cut through the overwhelming volume of data
01:23and focus on the insights most pertinent to their work.
01:28At the national level, this data depository is a critical pillar of our broader strategy to strengthen Malaysia's security framework.
01:40By offering a centralised platform, we are ensuring that our security personnel are equipped with the necessary tools to anticipate, understand and respond.
01:55We must remember that no single nation can adequately address challenges such as terrorism and violence and extremism alone.
02:06Terrorist networks tend to exploit the porousness of borders,
02:12leveraging the interconnectedness between countries to spread their radical ideologies,
02:20recruit foreign terrorist fighters and launch sophisticated cyber threats.
02:26Sko stands ready to play an invaluable role, not only for Malaysia, but for the entire South Asian region and beyond.
