PEKAN: Issues linked to the 3R (race, religion and royalty) should not be touched on as it can threaten national unity and harmony, says Pahang Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Wan Rosdy Wan Ismail (pic).
He said 3R issues could cause a wider gap between races and create unease among people of various ethnicities, cultures and races in this country.
Wan Rosdy added that he hopes everyone practises mature politics instead of “all-out-attack-politics” to enable efforts by the unity government to develop the country to run smoothly.
“Now is the time to develop the country and the states. If not, it will be worse in the future… the economy will collapse, national income will fall and the country’s debt will be high. When that happens, there is no point in regretting,” he said.
He said this at the launch of the state-level Fly the Jalur Gemilang 2023 ceremony at Dataran Bandar Diraja Pekan here tonight.
Also present were state Investment, Industries, Science, Technology and Innovation Committee chairman Datuk Mohamad Nizar Mohamad Najib, who is also chairman of the Fly the Jalur Gemilang committee, and the state administrative lineup.
Meanwhile, Wan Rosdy said the programmes to fuel the spirit of patriotism must be held often to remind the people, especially the younger generation, that the independence they enjoy now is the result of the efforts, sacrifices and wisdom of previous leaders. – Bernama
