KUALA LUMPUR (Bernama): The government is committed to rehabilitating the country and liberating it from corruption and abuse of power, says Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad.
The Prime Minister said on Monday that this was being done by strengthening the country’s administration based on the"Rule of Law" and separation of powers as enshrined in the Federal Constitution.
Dr Mahathir said the government would always respect and defend the sovereignty of the institution of constitutional monarchy, the position of Islam as the federal religion, special privileges of the Malays and bumiputeras in Sabah and Sarawak, as well as the rights of other races as stated in the Federal Constitution.
Dr Mahathir also said that the government efforts to rehabilitate the country’s financial position and economic performance, as well as to fulfil its promises to the people, had begun to bear fruit. He said it also proved that Malaysians can come together and share common values in a very harmonious way regardless of race, background and beliefs.
