Unity Government focuses on maintaining political stability, people’s welfare

SEREMBAN: The Unity Government will continue to focus on three main thrusts, namely maintaining political stability, driving economic prosperity and safeguarding the welfare of the people, said Pakatan Harapan (PH) Secretary-General Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution Ismail. He said this principle is also the basis of unification in the Unity Government and has been proven in its implementation over the past three years. "This government was formed based on mutual trust and respect. These two political values, trust and respect, are why I am impressed with Tok Min (Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Aminuddin Harun) who managed to maintain his victory in Negeri Sembilan and govern successfully," he said when speaking at the PH Main Leadership Inaugural Lecture here last night. Also present were Aminuddin, who is also the Negeri Sembilan PH chairman, Amanah president Datuk Seri Mohamad Sabu and DAP secretary-general Anthony Loke. Saifuddin Nasution said he also has confidence in the continuity of the current leadership, with the current term remaining for less than two years. "We place strong confidence in Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, we want him to continue for the remaining term and if asked what PH's direction is, we want to strive to govern for a second term and Anwar to lead as Prime Minister for a second term." "Our direction is very clear and that must start with Negeri Sembilan, we continue to build strength and Tok Min will continue to lead with excellence," he said. At the same time, Saifuddin Nasution said priority would continue to be given to the welfare of the people and the continuity of economic policies in facing current global challenges. "...the world is currently facing a crisis, whatever their target, the situation is causing us to face an energy crisis...we meet every week in the Economic Action Council, there is no other way. We promise the people, we will defend the people's welfare and economic stability," he said. Meanwhile, Loke stressed the importance of political consensus between parties in the government as the main basis to ensure that the stability of state and federal administration is maintained. Commenting on the recent political situation in Negeri Sembilan, he said there were several important lessons for leaders, including the need to remain calm and act rationally in the face of crises. Anthony, who is also the Chennah State Assemblyman (ADUN), assured that all 17 PH assemblymen in Negeri Sembilan would remain united and support the existing leadership to continue the mandate to the people. "We want the state to be stable so that the country is also stable. This is important to ensure that the administration of the Federal Government under the leadership of Datuk Seri Anwar can continue," he said, urging all elected representatives and party machinery to continue to focus on their respective duties, especially in resolving the people's issues and ensuring that the administration runs smoothly. Meanwhile, Aminuddin said his party would continue to provide commitment in ensuring that the state government's development and economy were on a stable, structured and continuous path for the well-being of the people. He said that despite the political crisis in the state, the state government's priority was to ensure that the welfare of the people was always maintained, including paying attention to aspects of education, economic stability and efforts to attract more investment. "We want this state to continue to progress, we want this state to continue to run well, we want the children who are studying to continue to be taken care of... the state government needs to take proactive steps to ensure the economy continues to grow and the people are not burdened, in fact today there are companies coming to invest in this state. "Today we don't want to talk about politics, politics, politics. We want to talk about how we can win the hearts of the people by reducing their burdens. This is what we must do. This is what the young people must ensure is peace, prosperity so that we can continue to move forward better," he said. -- BERNAMA
