Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim emphasized that a nation's prosperity should not be solely measured by its economic and technological advancements. He stressed the importance of nurturing a knowledgeable and disciplined younger generation. The prime minister highlighted that education should instill values, a sense of service, and responsibility towards family, society, and the country.

Anwar argued that the true meaning of development and a country's success lies in the development of its young people who embody these qualities. He urged that children must cultivate a spirit of service, education, discipline, and love. Anwar explained that the purpose of acquiring knowledge through schools, institutions of higher learning, and universities is to become morally upright individuals who can serve society, their parents, and the nation.

He emphasized that this culture must be nurtured, as he launched the 15th Malaysian Scouts Jamboree (MYJAM15) at the Penang State Stadium.
