The Sun5 days ago
KOTA BHARU: The Kelantan government has announced plans to establish Integrity Units across all local councils as part of efforts to improve governance and foster a culture of integrity within the state's public service.
Deputy Menteri Besar Datuk Dr Mohamed Fadzli Hassan confirmed the decision, stating it follows a resolution from the National Governance Committee Meeting (Series 4, No.1/2025) and was approved during the State Executive Council Meeting on Feb 5.
'The initiative is an extension of the Kelantan Anti-Corruption Plan (KACP) 2020–2024, which mirrors the National Anti-Corruption Plan (NACP) 2019–2023,' he said.
The plan emphasises service delivery based on Ubudiyyah (servitude), Mas'uliyyah (accountability), and Itqan (excellence).
Dr Mohamed Fadzli also revealed that the state is preparing to introduce the Kelantan Anti-Corruption Strategies (KACS), aligned with the National Anti-Corruption Strategies (NACS) 2024–2028.
He made the remarks while responding to a question from Saizol Ismail (PAS–Salor) regarding the state's policies on integrity and professionalism among civil servants during the Kelantan State Legislative Assembly session at the Kota Darulnaim Complex. - Bernama

It's a no-confidence vote by the rakyat, says Takiyuddin

PAS secretary-general Takiyuddin Hassan said Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim should take heed of the turnout at today's rally and make the decision to resign. KUALA LUMPUR : PAS secretary-general Takiyuddin Hassan has likened the turnout of nearly 20,000 people at the Turun Anwar rally today as a vote of no confidence against Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim. Takiyuddin said Anwar should take heed of the turnout at today's rally and make the 'moral decision' to resign instead of waiting for a confidence motion to be brought against him in the Dewan Rakyat. He also dismissed tabling a confidence motion, saying the number of MPs who would vote against Anwar may not reflect the sentiments of Malaysians nor reflect the number of Malaysians who were at the rally today. 'That's why, to us, the real vote of no confidence is from the rakyat. That is what should be considered. When the prime minister sees this many people calling for his resignation, he should pay attention,' rather than wait for action to be taken against him in the Dewan Rakyat, Takiyuddin said when met after the rally ended. The rally at Dataran Merdeka, organised by PAS Youth, was aimed at pressing for Anwar to resign as prime minister. The youth wing claimed that more than 200,000 people took part, although police estimated that just 18,000 rally-goers were present. Anwar had previously dared his rivals to table a parliamentary motion, saying he had already asked Dewan Rakyat Speaker Johari Abdul to give priority to the motion if it was tabled.

[UPDATED] Anwar jokes about Pas-led rally, says he was not invited

PUTRAJAYA: Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim gave a humorous response to the Pas-led rally held today, saying simply: "I was not invited." He made the remark when asked to comment on the protest when met by reporters after the 2025 Prime Minister's Cup Debate Finals. Police anticipate a turnout of between 10,000 and 15,000 people at today's rally. The rally aims to pressure the government over issues such as the rising cost of living and alleged institutional failures. Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Mohd Khalid Ismail had said that police would facilitate the assembly. Police had also advised the public to plan their journeys in advance and use public transport where possible to avoid congestion in the city centre.

Takiyuddin pours cold water on no-confidence vote idea

KUALA LUMPUR: Perikatan Nasional chief whip Datuk Seri Takiyuddin Hassan has dismissed any plans for a vote of no-confidence against Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim. Takiyuddin said a vote of no-confidence was limited to members of parliament and that the opposition may not have enough numbers to move such a vote. "That's why for us, the vote of no-confidence actually comes from the people," he told a press conference at the end of the Pas-led rally. "This is what should be considered. For now, I don't see (a motion of no-confidence being submitted) yet. Perhaps if there is a bigger issue, we might consider it," he said. He was asked to comment on opposition leader Datuk Seri Hamzah Zainudin's remarks in his speech at the rally, in which the PN secretary-general hinted at submitting a motion of no confidence in the Dewan Rakyat. On the 18,000 turnout at the rally, which was well below the 300,000 target set, Takiyuddin said he still considered the gathering a success, as it brought together people from different communities and political parties that were once adversaries. "If anyone says the crowd was not large, I don't know what to say."
