PM Anwar vows unity govt will prioritise grassroots voices
PRIME Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim emphasised the government's commitment to listening to the people's concerns during a grassroots programme, adding that Madani also listens to the grassroots before deciding on policies. Speaking at the Gotong Royong Kenduri Rakyat event in Dataran Kg Pachitan, Anwar noted that the gathering was special as it brought together himself, both deputy prime ministers, and several Cabinet ministers to discuss issues affecting villagers. 'This is a special occasion as we have the PM, both deputy prime ministers, and several Cabinet ministers in a village where we discussed issues faced by the people and how best we can resolve them. 'From a macroeconomic perspective, our economic growth is good with low inflation and unemployment, but there still seems to be some worry at the lower level. 'Let me assure you that the Madani government is here to hear you out,' he said at the programme. Anwar also highlighted the strong unity and understanding within the Madani government as it remains focused on driving Malaysia's progress and prosperity. Anwar assured that his administration prioritises grassroots opinions in decision-making and emphasised that the Madani government remains united and focused on national development. 'We want to continue to develop this country, and I must say the understanding among us is extraordinary. We remain focused on the tasks before us,' he added. The programme aims to strengthen ties between elected representatives and the public by providing a relaxed platform for direct engagement and voicing concerns. —July 1, 2025 Main image: Malay Mail

Kelantan Ulama expresses support for Anwar's leadership
Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim PUTRAJAYA (July 20): Deputy chairman of Jabhah Pondok Kelantan Syeikh Wazir Che Awang Al-Makki Hafizahullah has expressed full support for the leadership of Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim and called for the continuation of the Anwar-led MADANI government. He said the religious scholars would continue to support the Prime Minister and were ready to assist in overcoming any challenges during his administration. 'We fully support the leadership of Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim. God willing, we stand behind him. 'All the obstacles and challenges in this country can be overcome. Malaysia can be saved, and the government under Datuk Seri's leadership can be preserved,' he said when speaking at the 'Malaysia Bermunajat 2025' programme at Putra Mosque here last night. The programme, attended by Anwar and thousands of congregants, aimed to enliven the culture of 'munajat' (supplication) and appreciation of knowledge as the foundation for uniting the ummah and building a society grounded in Malaysian MADANI values. Meanwhile, Syeikh Wazir said frequent changes in government within short periods were not encouraged in Islam, and suggested that a good administration be maintained for up to 10 years so that the people could benefit from it. 'In Malaysia, we see governments changing every five years, two years, or even after one year, resulting in shifting policies, the decline of religious schools, and a decline in all areas, (including) the economy. This is not the Islamic way,' he said. Yesterday, Anwar urged Muslims to continue defending the legacy of Islamic scholarship and strengthening the relationship between religious scholars (ulama) and leaders (umara) in facing the challenges of the modern era, including the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) and digitalisation. – Bernama

Ukhuwah Programme Reflects MADANI Government's People-Centred Leadership
PORT DICKSON, July 20 (Bernama) -- The Ukhuwah Kepimpinan Kerajaan MADANI programme held here today clearly reflects the MADANI government's commitment to making service to the people the cornerstone of its leadership. The Backbenchers Club (BBC) said the programme involved the participation of MADANI government MPs and members of the administration in various community initiatives, including a major gotong-royong at Pusasda Mosque, Kampung Telok Pelandok, and Kampung Pachitan. A Rahmah Sale was also held, offering essential goods at affordable prices as a reflection of the government's concern over the economic challenges faced by the people. 'The programme was further enlivened with a communal feast and a meet-and-greet session with the local community. This relaxed and meaningful atmosphere encouraged open interaction between leaders and the people, thereby strengthening the spirit of togetherness. 'It is a manifestation of MADANI principles that celebrate the values of compassion, mutual respect, and unity within society,' it said in a statement. According to BBC, the presence of Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim further underscored the people-centred approach, namely a leadership that goes to the ground, listens to the people's concerns, and responds with empathy and tangible action. 'This is an example of the value of ihsan and social responsibility, which are the pillars of the Malaysia MADANI philosophy,' the statement said. It added that members of the administration and MPs would continue to support the ongoing organisation of such programmes. 'Only by engaging with and understanding the pulse of the people can we build a nation that is more inclusive, just and dignified, in line with the grand aspirations of Malaysia MADANI,' said the statement.
