Ahmad Zahid urges youth to lead with justice, support Palestine at iFUTURE summit
Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi urged the youth to step up as future leaders, calling on them to be the voice of justice and peace. Speaking at the opening of the International Young Future Leaders Summit (iFUTURE) 2025, he encouraged young people to unite and speak out for the oppressed, including Palestinians.
He emphasized that true leadership is about sincerity, not fame, and should come from a place of love for humanity and commitment to justice. He also stressed that leadership today is about service, responsibility, and sacrifice, not power or prestige.
Zahid also reminded the youth not to let technology control them, but to use it to spread hope, truth, and unite people. In a world dominated by social media, he said, leadership is measured by integrity, not followers.
