“I raised the issue of purveyors of violence and terror, which we must monitor from now.
“Whether through schools, politics, departments, or certain groups, it must be monitored. If not, we will be caught off guard by violent acts, as we have seen happening in many places around the world,” he said.
He said this when launching the Malaysia Action Plan on Preventing and Countering Violent Extremism (MyPCVE) here Monday (Sept 30).
MyPCVE was developed to coordinate efforts to address the threat of extremist ideologies and violence, based on four pillars – prevention, enforcement, rehabilitation, and strengthening. – Bernama
