00:00Next, I would like to touch on Buktiran, the 8th branch of the State Attorney's Office under Buktiran.
00:06I would like to congratulate the new State Attorney,
00:09Datuk Muhammad Dusuki Muhtar, because he has been appointed as a State Attorney.
00:13And Tansi Teri is still on top of all his services and commitments as a State Attorney before this,
00:19because he has also become a judge in the Constitutional Court.
00:22However, the appointment of this State Attorney has become talk of the town
00:27when he was previously the head of the Agency's Appeals and Negotiations,
00:33which involved giving 11 sentences to release and release the State Attorney, D.N.A.A.
00:42And was it because of the evidence that was given by him,
00:49he was able to...
00:50This is what people say, the State Attorney,
00:53was it because of the evidence that was given by him, he was able to become a State Attorney?
00:58I still remember, not that I still remember,
01:00this noble court still remembers,
01:02how the Honourable Speaker spoke in the Agung Amno meeting, which went viral,
01:07where he said,
01:09the Prime Minister must appoint us as State Attorneys.
01:14So this is the result,
01:16his people,
01:17who are being used as State Attorneys.
01:19And we need to clean this up,
01:21so that there is no more negative perception towards our State Attorney branch.
01:26This is what we need to unite.
01:28So that's it, ladies and gentlemen.
01:30Time is up, I am out of time.
01:33I...
01:34Honourable Speaker, I respect Masjid Tanah,
01:38but for me, the view that Masjid Tanah had regarding the accusation
01:44of respecting the Prophet is something that, for me, is a bad excuse.
01:48If the narrative of State Attorneys
01:53does not relate to certain cases,
01:56I think this is something that, for my sake,
01:59I need advice from the Honourable Speaker.
02:02I suggest that the Honourable Speaker make a big effort.
02:06Why make an effort?
02:07Make an effort and send it to...
02:09Honourable Speaker, I told you at the beginning of the speech,
02:13I said it out loud, if you don't believe me, you can go and see,
02:17and speak and see for yourself.
02:19I ask, if possible, for the Honourable Speaker
02:22to answer that, that would be easier.
02:24It's not that I have this, but...
02:26I think, Honourable Speaker,
02:28each of us has a position that is respected.
02:32Honourable Speaker, as the chairman of PSC, I respect Honourable Speaker.
02:36So the things that I consider to be hypocritical,
02:40does Honourable Speaker like to take these hypocritical things to court?
02:44I think that's something that I can't consider as your wisdom
02:49to bring things to court.
02:51You, as the chairman of PSC,
02:54Honourable Speaker, I ask for advice.
02:56I've never set up to talk about this,
02:59but for me to make sure that the Honourable Speaker is still on the ground as the chairman of PSC,
03:04don't bring hypocritical things and bad assumptions to the Honourable Speaker and Honourable Speaker.
03:10If Honourable Speaker is undisciplined, you should you should use sources outside of the Parliament.
03:18I'm not asking Honourable Speaker, I'm asking an advisor from the Chair.
03:21It's okay, I will let Honourable Speaker know.
03:24Honourable Speaker said that just now.
03:26It's okay, I have issues with the Honourable Speaker.
03:28I also said that.
03:30I'm dealing with the Chair now.
03:33Okay, thank you Honourable Speaker.
03:37Hon Honourable Speaker,
03:38The way to respect Masjid Tanah is by asking questions.
03:43So I think, I know that there are...
03:47Mr. Chairman, I respect you even more,
03:50since you are chairing this hearing, and I rarely get up to say such a thing.
03:55And I think this is a serious matter that I need an advisor.
04:00Yes, I suggest that you make an effort.
04:02Chairing an effort is a very technical matter
04:06that I need an advisor from you, so that the hearing,
04:11if you dare, you can say it out loud.
04:14Not to use this hearing as a place to discuss.
04:17Okay. So I advise everyone not to bring any hearsay out loud and enter this hearing.
04:25And if you respect me, if you want to make an effort, you can send an effort to the office and Mr. Speaker.
04:31And once again, I advise everyone not to use any letters or services.
04:37Madam Speaker, earlier the hearsay was said out loud.
04:41How can you say it out loud and enter the hearing?
04:43I just want to ask for your opinion.
04:48I think the Speaker has given the same advice.
04:53And if it's not certain, in the form of questions, it can be done.
04:57So I think taking...
04:58Isn't that a public order?
04:59Public order, yes.
05:01I want to correct earlier, the Speaker has said, if it's not certain, it can be done in the form of questions.
05:07So what Madam Chairwoman said earlier, in the form of questions,
05:12Madam Chairwoman's opinion is correct.
05:17So we are waiting for the Minister to answer.
05:20And if you think it's a bad idea, you can make an effort.
05:26Madam Speaker, I take the same advice from the Speaker.
05:32I hope all of us, even my good friends,
05:38we don't use the opportunities we have to discuss.
05:42We should understand, if we talk about the democracy of parliament,
05:50we should walk the talk.
