Nation will be crippled if driven by anger, says Anwar
BANGI: A country will be crippled if driven by anger, but must instead be guided by knowledge, which forms the foundation of its strength, said Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim emphasized that a nation could be weakened by anger, but instead must be driven by knowledge, which is the foundation of its strength. He stated that the resilience of any fight cannot solely rely on spirit and emotion, but must be bolstered by knowledge that raises public awareness and fosters responsibility.
Anwar's close friend, the late Ustaz Fadzil Noor, had previously reminded them that the Islamic cause does not rise on the basis of spirit, emotion, and sentiment alone, but rather through the strength of knowledge that raises awareness and instills a sense of responsibility. At the 3 Generations Appreciation Dinner: Continuing the Legacy of the Struggle, Anwar highlighted that the Madani nation must be fortified with knowledge, as this will serve as the cornerstone for building a robust nation.
His wife, Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail, alongside Minister in the Prime Minister's Department (Religious Affairs) Dr Zulkifli Hasan, were also in attendance.
