  "account": "Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim warned that no one, regardless of their service to the country, should be permitted to plunder or pillage public or national wealth. The Prime Minister emphasized that compromising on corrupt practices based solely on past service is contrary to Islamic teachings. Anwar stressed that tolerance for evil is what destroys us. He called on those who oppose corruption to speak out more loudly and send a clear message that those who commit corruption should face prison. Anwar shared this sentiment from his speech at the 14th Madani Intellectuals Forum, which highlighted the dangers of a culture of permissiveness, as previously noted by Indonesian thinker and former leader Mohammad Natsir.",
