"Hence, my stance is that we allow the responsible party to provide an explanation, and insya-Allah, the Prime Minister (Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim) earlier today said that a detailed explanation will be provided, including the context (regarding the new scheme) in relation to the national debt and any financial implications, in terms of annual operating expenses at the federal level.

"If we want to comment, for me, it is appropriate that we should be fair and get a full explanation (from the relevant parties),” he told reporters, after presenting the donation of Tabung Kasih@HAWANA in Kampung Pulai, Serkam, here today.

Also present were Communications Ministry secretary-general Datuk Mohamad Fauzi Md Isa, Malaysian National News Agency (Bernama) editor-in-chief (assuming duties of Bernama chief executive officer) Nur-ul Afida Kamaludin, Broadcasting director-general Datuk Suhaimi Sulaiman and HAWANA project director Arul Rajoo Durar Raj, who is also Bernama News Services deputy editor-in-chief. — Bernama
