00:30and also the meteorological department of the Ministry of Weather.
00:35Even though it's still bright in the morning,
00:38in the evening, it's expected to be cloudy.
00:41Five days ago, it's expected to rain heavily.
00:47Maybe until after I finish my speech.
00:50Therefore, I urge all of you,
00:55to pray for us to be away from the rain.
01:00Malaysia is usually far away from the rain.
01:05And finally, we pray for all the affected areas,
01:12to be given patience and strength to rebuild again,
01:17after the flood.
01:22This is important.
01:24Ladies and gentlemen,
01:28when we are united,
01:34we face the flood together,
01:36even though we are not affected,
01:40Alhamdulillah,
01:42I also try to make sure that all affected areas,
01:47due to the flood,
01:49if there is an earthquake,
01:51or a large telecommunication problem,
01:54which cannot be operated,
01:56the Ministry of Health and Welfare will strictly regulate,
01:58to ensure that it can be solved,
02:01and we can use mobile phones, etc.
02:06We have also ensured that the mobile phone,
02:09in the regional transportation center,
02:11is connected to Wi-Fi,
02:14so that those who are in these transportation centers,
02:18can use the internet with ease.
02:29I have mentioned in general,
02:31in the media debate last Friday,
02:33so you can refer to the figures there correctly,
02:37but almost everything has been repaired,
02:44and we will continue to monitor,
02:48the telecommunication facilities,
02:51especially ahead of what is expected,
02:53the second wave of floods that we are prepared for,
02:58if it starts today,
03:00until the 11th of December.
