KUALA KANGSAR: Wisdom in leadership as well as dynamic and energetic management are needed post-Covid-19 in planning recovery strategies that can create a meaningful impact on the people, especially in efforts to eradicate poverty, says Sultan of Perak, Sultan Nazrin Shah.

He said the wisdom of past leaders, who formulated poverty eradication programmes during the post-Independence era and when the New Economic Policy was introduced, should be emulated and used as reference and a guide.

"Following the pandemic, the education platform, namely schools, universities and educational centres, were the institutions that were directly affected. At the ceremony, Sultan Nazrin presented awards and medals to 38 of the 339 recipients, while the second session of the ceremony for the remaining recipients will be held on a date to be approved by His Highness, subject to the Covid-19 situation at that time.

In his speech, Sultan Nazrin expressed concern over the state of education in the country which still lacks sufficient infrastructure to enable the new educational approach to be enjoyed equally by everyone. As such, Sultan Nazrin said, it is the responsibility of the country to re-engineer policies and programmes on health, food supply, education, welfare and human resources, especially the over-dependence on foreign workers.

It is common knowledge wisdom in Malaysia is not with its leaders in power. What they cite is their personal agendas.

The only way that can happen is enforcing it to the politicians
