Examining PM Ismail Sabri's Inaugural Speech

Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob was sworn in as Malaysia's 9th Prime Minister on Saturday, and delivered his inaugural speech the next day. Firstly, we unpacked what the speech meant in regard to Ismail Sabri's direction and vision as the new Prime Minister. Next, we looked into the concept of a Malaysian Family as expressed by Ismail in his speech, and what it takes for us to achieve this. Finally, we delve into the importance of inclusivity in people-led movements from an earlier interview.
