This was said during the triennial general meeting of the Progressive Democratic Party (PDP) Krian Division, which was held at Dewan Sri Krian, Saratok, on Sunday (Mar 22).

Meanwhile, he also called on the youth to not abuse social media and to avoid spreading sensitive issues involving religion, race, and the royal institution (3R), to ensure that harmony within society continues to be preserved.

“Young people need to be more cautious in their use of social media and not be easily influenced by sensitive issues that could undermine social unity.

“We want to ensure that the harmony we enjoy today continues to endure, and this requires the cooperation of all parties, including the younger generation, to act more responsibly in everything they do,” he said.

During the meeting, Friday retained his presidentship of the PDP Krian Division, while Senator Pele Peter Tinggom was appointed as vice-chairman 2.

In addition, Riza Nalang was appointed as the division’s Youth Chief and Anie Isek as Women’s Chief.

Friday also called on party members to continue strengthening unity and to maintain their support for the party leadership and the state government to ensure that the development agenda can be implemented more effectively. — DayakDaily
