PUTRAJAYA, Aug 20 (Bernama) — Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim today reiterated the government\u2019s commitment to ensuring that justice is upheld for all Malaysians, regardless of whether they are from the majority or minority ethnic groups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
While addressing the Ministry of Finance monthly assembly, Anwar, who is also the Finance Minister, said every approach implemented must be fair by taking into consideration the people\u2019s needs and, as such, the government will continue to listen to and examine all views through ongoing dialogue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201c\u2026 if we want to save the country, we must ensure justice for the majority and the minority. We do not want the tyranny of the majority, we do not want the tyranny of the minority. The approach must be fairer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWhatever weaknesses (there are), we will improve in the budget (Budget 2026). We are listening to all views, we will make adjustments and improvements in the coming budget. What we are doing now is not necessarily perfect, there are shortcomings. That\u2019s why the dialogue must continue,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
