  "account": "KUALA LUMPUR: Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim emphasized today that a thriving nation must be built on the foundation of strong, happy families. He cautioned that measuring development solely through the lens of modern infrastructure, technological progress, or new investments is inadequate. Instead, a great nation is one that nurtures civilised individuals with strong character and noble values. In his online post, Anwar highlighted that the development of such individuals begins within the family unit. \"It is from the family institution that generations who will shape the nation's future emerge,\" he stated.\n\nThe government, Anwar asserted, will persist in implementing policies and initiatives that prioritize family welfare. This includes measures to support mothers and children, enhance childcare facilities, provide assistance to persons with disabilities, and acknowledge the vital role of caregivers. Earlier in the day, Anwar inaugurated the national Family Month celebration in Shah Alam, Selangor.",
  "summary": "The prime minister says the future depends on the development of people who are civilised, possess good character and hold noble human values.",
