You Won T Lose Malayness By Treating Others Well Zahid Tells Youths

---

Our sense of Malayness and faith would not be affected by treating those from other races and religions well, said Deputy Prime Minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.
“Malaysia is a country with a plural society and it should be respected to create harmony.
"And the same goes for political stability, not just because of the agenda but for the nation’s development and people’s well-being,” Bernama reported him as saying.
Zahid said this while officiating an award ceremony in conjunction with the 42nd and 43rd annual general assemblies of the 4B Malaysia Youth Movement yesterday.
As such, he added, the government will not compromise with any party that continues to play up racial and religious issues.
“And the government will continue upholding matters related to Islam and Malays, without marginalising those from other races and faiths,” Zahid stressed.
Meanwhile, the rural and regional development minister urged youth leadership to look at the three elements offered by his ministry in ensuring that they not only serve the members but the entire community.
He said the elements offered were the involvement of members and the community, especially the youth, in the economic sector - through entrepreneurship programmes.
It also includes improving living standards, the involvement of youth in technical and vocational education and training (TVET) with over 500 available courses, as well as a stimulus scheme to elevate the profession of tahfiz students who have completed the memorisation of the entire Quran. - Mkini
