Anwar: Freedom Of Speech Must - 3

ANWAR-DEMOCRACY 4 (LAST) PUTRAJAYA

The Prime Minister said the government will continue strengthening its communication efforts and clearly explaining the benefits of its programmes to ensure that public concerns and complaints receive proper attention.

He added that the government has also taken firm measures to dismantle cartels, including long-standing chicken and egg cartels, while intensifying enforcement to curb smuggling and leakages, which are estimated to have reached RM15.5 billion.

However, Anwar noted that this major effort has yet to become part of the public narrative or a serious point of debate in Parliament.

“It is only right that we recognise the enforcement personnel - those who work tirelessly, take risks and have succeeded in saving RM15.5 billion of the country’s funds. Yet, this does not become the narrative. Instead, what often surfaces are minor issues that are repeatedly highlighted,” he said.
