SHAH ALAM, Aug 22 — Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has today reminded Permodalan Nasional Berhad (PNB) of its “sacred” obligation to elevate the Bumiputera community’s socio-economic status.
Speaking at the launch of a PNB campaign, Anwar said the government investment fund was founded to prevent ethnic strife that stemmed from wealth inequality among the ethnic groups.
“If we are talking about saving the race and nation, it must be done in a positive way — how to elevate their standing but not by destroying anyone,” Anwar said in his opening address here.
“That was the framework designed [for PNB] by our forefathers.”
