Youth Must Lead Malaysia’s Future with Knowledge, Integrity and Courage – PM Anwar

KUALA LUMPUR, May 15 — Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim today called on Malaysia’s youth to become the driving force behind the nation’s future by embracing knowledge, technology, integrity and critical thinking in facing an increasingly complex global landscape. Speaking in conjunction with the National Youth Day Celebration, Anwar described the country’s youth as a symbol of spirit, idealism and strength in shaping a progressive and competitive Malaysia. He said young people must be equipped with knowledge, skills, values and confidence to navigate rapid changes in society, technology and the economy. “I believe today’s young generation have the courage to think critically, voice out opinions maturely and bring about reforms for the betterment of the country,” he said. The Prime Minister stressed that mastery of technology and innovation alone is insufficient without strong moral principles, integrity and social awareness to build a dignified and respected nation. Anwar also reaffirmed the MADANI Government’s commitment towards empowering youth through expanded opportunities in education, skills training, employment and entrepreneurship development. He said the government would continue strengthening support systems for gig workers and young entrepreneurs to ensure that the younger generation remains competitive in the evolving economic environment. “As a commitment to the youth empowerment agenda, I am announcing an additional allocation of RM5 million to Majlis Belia Malaysia (MBM) to empower the movement and development of young people across the country,” he announced. The additional allocation is expected to strengthen youth-focused programmes and initiatives aimed at leadership development, innovation, volunteerism and community engagement nationwide. Anwar expressed confidence that the spirit, determination and ideas of Malaysian youth would become a key force in elevating the country to greater heights. “I am sure the spirit, thought and determination of the younger generation will be an important force in lifting Malaysia to a more advanced, fair and respected level,” he added. The National Youth Day Celebration serves as an annual platform to recognise the role of youth in national development while encouraging greater participation in shaping Malaysia’s future direction. -- MINUTESMY -- SOURCE: FB ANWAR IBRAHIM
