KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA April 1, 2026 — Prime Minister Dato’ Seri Anwar Ibrahim expressed gratitude for the opportunity to attend the Forum Ilmuan Malaysia MADANI last night, describing it as a crucial platform for open and fact-based discussions among the government, academia, and professional sectors on pressing national issues.
In his statement posted on X (formerly Twitter), Anwar highlighted that Malaysia is entering a new phase amid increasingly challenging global conditions, particularly the global energy crisis. He stressed the need for preparedness, clear policies, and courage to make difficult decisions.
“Malaysia faces these challenges with a solid foundation supported by political stability and strong institutions, which have enabled us to maintain economic resilience and investor confidence,” Anwar said.
However, he acknowledged the current realities require the entire nation to remain vigilant. The government’s priority remains protecting the people as best as possible, while implementing prudent measures to ensure medium- and long-term economic stability.
Anwar emphasized that the country’s approach must be grounded in facts, discipline, and shared responsibility, ensuring every decision is not only accurate but also fair and rooted in compassion (ihsan) towards the rakyat.
The forum serves as an important avenue to gather views and insights to tackle urgent national matters transparently.
The Prime Minister concluded with the hashtags #MalaysiaMADANI, #MADANIbekerja, #RancakkanMADANI, and #YakinMADANI.
The post, dated March 31, 2026, was accompanied by four photos from the event, showing Anwar engaging with participants at the forum.
This gathering reflects the MADANI government’s ongoing commitment to collaborative, evidence-based policymaking in the face of global uncertainties.
