Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has ordered a nationwide crackdown on foreigners who allegedly misuse tourist and student visas to operate businesses in Malaysia, warning that such activities could undermine local livelihoods and create unfair competition for Malaysian entrepreneurs.
Speaking at the Communications Ministry&rsquo;s monthly assembly in Putrajaya, Anwar said the government is increasingly concerned about foreign nationals entering the country on visitor or student passes before engaging in commercial activities, particularly within the micro, small and medium enterprise (MSME) sector.
Concerns Over Businesses Operating Under Tourist Visas
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/6819c89459373b767b34763707bdcf9a2520b353e28084618d33bd8947b8162f" />
According to Anwar, authorities have identified cases where foreigners arrive in Malaysia under the guise of tourism but subsequently run businesses ranging from vehicle repair workshops and air-conditioning services to coffee shops and other small enterprises.
He noted that some individuals are believed to be using licences or permits registered under Malaysian citizens&rsquo; names, while others legally establish companies but rely almost entirely on imported goods and workers from their home countries, limiting opportunities for local businesses and employees.
The Prime Minister warned that these practices could have a direct impact on job opportunities for Malaysians while placing compliant local traders at a competitive disadvantage.
Coordinated Nationwide Enforcement
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/c52804e01e8f3ce1f4ebde203d9d199934114de7faee0f42cafe72265bc0e983" />
In response, Anwar has instructed multiple government agencies to work together to strengthen enforcement efforts rather than relying on isolated operations.
Among the agencies involved are the Immigration Department, Inland Revenue Board (IRB), Royal Malaysian Customs Department, Ministry of Domestic Trade and Cost of Living (KPDN), local authorities, Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM), the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) and other relevant bodies.
He stressed that enforcement should be immediate and comprehensive, with authorities ensuring that businesses comply with licensing requirements, immigration laws and tax obligations.
The Immigration Department has been tasked with tackling visa and permit misuse, while the IRB and Customs Department will focus on ensuring taxes are properly paid.
E-Commerce and Money Trails Under the Spotlight
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/bed73fd319b780b933601708b31e68af754932193220e557e9cdc4af8cc0f050" />
The government is also expanding its attention beyond physical businesses to include digital platforms.
Anwar said Bank Negara Malaysia and MCMC should closely examine e-commerce activities and financial transactions, including potential money laundering elements, to identify businesses operating outside legal requirements.
The move reflects a broader shift towards data-driven enforcement, with authorities expected to utilise digital tools and artificial intelligence to track suspicious activity, monitor money flows and identify business networks that may be operating through proxy arrangements.
Protecting Local Businesses and Economic Fairness
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/1319cfec514eb899069f69bec9feb9f7e1edcb0735a6e7e4f3b64d8ef52a9b44" />
The issue has become a growing concern as analysts warn that unlicensed or improperly registered foreign-run businesses may enjoy structural advantages by avoiding taxes, reducing operating costs or sourcing cheaper labour and supplies from overseas.
Such practices could make it increasingly difficult for legitimate Malaysian businesses, particularly SMEs, to compete fairly despite complying with regulations and contributing to the local economy.
Experts also caution that prolonged abuse of immigration rules could contribute to an expanding informal economy while weakening regulatory oversight and economic sovereignty.
At the same time, observers emphasise that enforcement should distinguish between illegal operators and legitimate foreign investors, many of whom continue to play an important role in Malaysia&rsquo;s economic development through investment, innovation and job creation.
Public Complaints Prompt Government Action
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/54e35d33f438bb04d62e29964a667f9a3593ab53be7f963a7b458f47a53ad8c1" />
Anwar acknowledged that concerns over foreign-run businesses have become increasingly widespread among Malaysians, with members of the public regularly raising the issue directly with him.
He said the problem cannot be solved by a single agency alone and requires coordinated action involving government departments, business associations, chambers of commerce and local trader groups.
The Prime Minister also called for stronger public participation by encouraging whistleblowing and reporting of suspected violations, while urging trader associations to cooperate with enforcement authorities instead of facilitating illegal activities.
Chief Secretary to the Government Tan Sri Shamsul Azri Abu Bakar has since pledged to mobilise the entire civil service machinery to support the initiative, describing it as necessary to protect Malaysia&rsquo;s economic interests and preserve a fair, transparent and integrity-driven business environment.
Government Aims to Balance Enforcement and Investment
While the government intends to take firm action against visa abuse and illegal business operations, officials have stressed that Malaysia remains committed to welcoming lawful foreign investment.
The objective, they say, is not to discourage legitimate international participation but to ensure that all businesses operate within the law, contribute fairly to the economy and compete on equal terms with local enterprises.
With multiple agencies now coordinating investigations into immigration compliance, taxation, licensing and financial activities, the government hopes the latest crackdown will address public concerns while safeguarding opportunities for Malaysian workers and business owners.

Anwar Orders Crackdown On Foreigners Misusing Tourist And Student Visas To Run Businesses In Malaysia

K-pop legends BIGBANG are officially set to return to Malaysia as part of their highly anticipated 2026&ndash;2027 world tour, marking a long-awaited moment for fans who have been waiting nearly a decade for their comeback to Kuala Lumpur.
The group will perform in the capital on 9 January 2027 (Saturday) at the TM Stadium Nasional (formerly Bukit Jalil National Stadium), as part of their global stadium tour celebrating their 20th anniversary.
Who Are BIGBANG?
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/7f70b6c889acf85257fc81f8928adea448eade0411a34e8e84250e1d8cfde9d8" />
BIGBANG is one of the most influential K-pop groups of all time, formed under YG Entertainment and debuting in 2006. Over the years, they have played a major role in shaping the global rise of K-pop through their distinct blend of hip-hop, pop, EDM and R&amp;B.

They are widely known for a catalogue of global hits such as &ldquo;Fantastic Baby,&rdquo; &ldquo;Bang Bang Bang,&rdquo; &ldquo;Haru Haru,&rdquo; &ldquo;Loser,&rdquo; and &ldquo;FXXK IT.&rdquo; Their music has earned them numerous awards across Asia, including major honours at the Mnet Asian Music Awards (MAMA) and recognition for their influence on global pop culture.

BIGBANG Confirm Kuala Lumpur Stop For 2026–2027 World Tour After Nearly A Decade Away

Driving safely could soon do more than keep you and others out of harm&rsquo;s way &mdash; it may also help you save hundreds of ringgit on your annual insurance premiums.
Good Drivers Could Enjoy Up to 65% in Insurance Savings
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/01c5a1e6f33fec207ed8960e8c4768f4ae854abccbeaddab44c1a30812cadd43" />
The Ministry of Transport has unveiled the Cermat Madani initiative, a new programme designed to reward responsible motorists with additional discounts on their motor insurance premiums. Developed in collaboration with 10 insurance and takaful providers, the scheme aims to encourage safer driving by linking insurance costs to an individual&rsquo;s driving behaviour.
Under the current system, motorists who maintain a claim-free record for five consecutive years can receive a maximum 55% No-Claim Discount (NCD). With Cermat Madani, eligible drivers may receive an additional rebate of up to 10%, bringing their total potential savings to 65%.
Transport Minister Anthony Loke explained that the programme is built on a simple principle: motorists who obey the law and consistently drive responsibly should be recognised and rewarded rather than being treated the same as higher-risk drivers.
How the New System Works
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/5ad9add0733fdd7409b07074b743805d1c454538f581fedc57742e16be6f64dd" />
To qualify, motorists will need to renew their road tax and insurance through the MyJPJ application, where participating insurers and takaful operators will conduct a risk assessment.
The evaluation will be powered by an artificial intelligence (AI) system that analyses data from the Road Transport Department (JPJ) and selected Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM) traffic records. Factors such as summonses, driving history and overall compliance will contribute to a driver's risk profile.
Drivers identified as low risk may then be offered additional premium rebates by their chosen insurer.
However, the government will not determine the exact scoring criteria or discount awarded. Instead, each participating insurance company will use its own internal risk assessment policies to decide whether a driver qualifies for a 5%, 8% or the maximum 10% rebate.
Phased Rollout Begins Now
Although the AI-based scoring mechanism will only be fully implemented from 10 September, motorists can begin enjoying benefits earlier.
As part of the programme's introductory phase, a 10% rebate will be available for all motorists purchasing insurance through MyJPJ until 9 September. After that, the rebate will become dependent on each driver's risk assessment and safety profile.
Private vehicle owners can also apply for the assessment up to two months before their road tax expires, allowing them to plan ahead for their renewals.
Encouraging Safer Roads Through Financial Incentives
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/65009f3c28b5dae0568e6d91e6dc56a7269701bf480577a6940d2c6af28cf832" />
Rather than simply reforming insurance pricing, the government hopes the initiative will encourage Malaysians to adopt safer habits behind the wheel.
By rewarding those who obey speed limits, avoid repeated traffic offences and maintain clean driving records, the programme aims to create a stronger culture of responsible driving while making roads safer for everyone.
Anthony Loke emphasised that road safety is ultimately about protecting lives and communities, not just reducing accident statistics. Using financial incentives to reinforce good behaviour, he believes, offers a practical way to encourage motorists to think twice before committing traffic offences.
A Fairer Way to Price Insurance
The initiative also aligns with Bank Negara Malaysia's gradual liberalisation of motor insurance tariffs, giving insurers greater flexibility to offer pricing based on individual risk rather than a one-size-fits-all model.
With more accurate data and AI-powered assessments, insurers can better distinguish between low-risk and high-risk drivers, potentially leading to fairer premiums across the industry.
For disciplined motorists, Cermat Madani could turn years of careful driving into meaningful financial savings &mdash; proving that playing by the rules may finally pay off in more ways than one.

Shake Shack has officially entered a new chapter in Malaysia after securing Halal certification across all of its local outlets, and it is celebrating the milestone with an indulgent new menu inspired by classic steakhouses, a dessert twist on tiramisu, and an exclusive collaboration with local creative brand bATIKTEKTURA.
The limited-time offerings will be available from 12 June 2026 at all Shake Shack Malaysia locations, giving customers plenty of reasons to visit beyond the brand&rsquo;s signature burgers.
Shake Shack Malaysia Is Now Officially Halal-Certified
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/80a324b3f8993180486760e1fc33c423f5312bba368fef99920f06e06d581491" />
After making its Malaysian debut in 2024, Shake Shack has spent the past two years working towards meeting the standards required for Halal certification.
The certification, issued by JAKIM, now covers all four of its Malaysian outlets at The Exchange TRX, Sunway Pyramid, KLIA Terminal 2 and Pavilion Kuala Lumpur, marking a significant milestone for the brand as it expands its accessibility to more Malaysians.
To achieve this, Shake Shack reviewed everything from ingredient sourcing and supplier partnerships to operational procedures to ensure compliance while maintaining the quality and hospitality it is known for globally.
Steakhouse Flavours Take Centre Stage
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/b5c25b9bc592f5b1b9545d140fe7c66724d679b78389ec1a93bb75a2ffc48e8f" />
To commemorate the occasion, Shake Shack has unveiled a brand-new Steakhouse Menu that brings the rich flavours of a traditional steakhouse into its signature fast-casual style.
Leading the collection is the Steakhouse Burger (RM32), featuring a juicy Angus beef patty topped with white cheddar cheese, saut&eacute;ed portobello mushrooms, crispy fried onions and a bold horseradish peppercorn mayo that adds a distinctive kick.
For those looking for something extra indulgent, the Steakhouse Fries (RM19) take the brand&rsquo;s crinkle-cut fries to another level, loaded with applewood-smoked streaky beef, scallions and the same creamy horseradish peppercorn sauce. The generous serving makes it ideal for sharing or even as a meal on its own.
Together, the two dishes offer a richer and more decadent interpretation of Shake Shack&rsquo;s familiar comfort food.
A Tiramisu-Inspired Shake For Dessert Lovers
<img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://r2.myc.my/651dcf9134ce521751ad89867398b898cad90cdf6563122727455b6e00e8ef07" />
No meal is complete without dessert, and Shake Shack is introducing an all-new Tiramisu Shake (RM30) to round off the experience.
Inspired by the classic Italian dessert, the shake combines mascarpone cream cheese, coffee and vanilla frozen custard before being finished with ladyfinger biscuit crumbles and a dusting of cocoa powder.
The result is a creamy, balanced drink that delivers coffee notes without being overpowering, making it enjoyable even for those who are not typically coffee enthusiasts.
Exclusive bATIKTEKTURA Collaboration Brings A Malaysian Twist
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/bd9e8370fc70d6cd706a4e66e86f26105c647b4910149c14deca49bffff44015" />
Alongside the food, Shake Shack is also launching its first-ever collaboration with local creative label bATIKTEKTURA.
The limited-edition merchandise collection combines traditional Malaysian influences with contemporary fashion, drawing inspiration from batik lattice motifs, Moorish architecture and the national flower, the Bunga Raya.
The designs reinterpret Shake Shack&rsquo;s iconic burger imagery into wearable pieces, including a modern men&rsquo;s shirt and scarf that celebrate local heritage in a fresh and artistic way.
It reflects the brand&rsquo;s continued effort to localise its identity while embracing Malaysian culture beyond just its menu.
Available Nationwide From 12 June
The Steakhouse Burger, Steakhouse Fries, Tiramisu Shake and Shake Shack x bATIKTEKTURA collection will all be available from 12 June 2026 at Shake Shack&rsquo;s four Malaysian outlets in The Exchange TRX, Sunway Pyramid, KLIA Terminal 2 and Pavilion Kuala Lumpur, while stocks last.
With its newly acquired Halal certification and a menu inspired by both international flavours and local creativity, Shake Shack Malaysia is looking to offer customers a fresh dining experience that blends indulgence, accessibility and cultural appreciation into one visit.

Shake Shack Malaysia Celebrates Halal Certification With New Steakhouse Menu, Tiramisu Shake & Exclusive Batik Collection

&nbsp;At its Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC 2026), Apple unveiled a wide range of new child safety features spanning iPhone, iPad, Mac and other devices. While much of the spotlight was on the introduction of Siri AI and Apple Intelligence, the company also placed strong emphasis on giving parents more control over their children&rsquo;s digital experiences.
The updates are designed to help families manage who children can communicate with, what content they can access, and how apps deliver age-appropriate experiences. Apple says the changes build on its existing Screen Time and Family Sharing tools, expanding them to meet growing global concerns around online safety for minors.
Parents gain control over who children can contact
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/838939b8fa94190425ffa0fa578b57e614ec8d6290c5346862672317e0604bbc" />
One of the key additions is a new communication approval system. Under the upcoming iOS 27 update, parents will be able to approve or decline requests when their child attempts to message, call, or FaceTime a new contact.
This means children will need parental approval before interacting with unfamiliar phone numbers across Messages, Phone and FaceTime, adding an extra safeguard to prevent unwanted or unsafe communication.
Apple is also extending these controls through a new PermissionKit framework, allowing developers to build apps where children must request approval before chatting, following, or adding new users.
&ldquo;Ask to Browse&rdquo; and safer web experiences
<img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://r2.myc.my/126fd0186e694171a781fbd60f6f76e0e2122ae016597675e6de1012f54f681c" />
Apple is introducing a new &ldquo;Ask to Browse&rdquo; feature, which requires children to request permission before accessing specific websites or surfing the internet more freely.
This expands Apple&rsquo;s existing parental controls, which already include content restrictions, screen time limits, and app usage monitoring through Family Sharing. Parents will also be able to apply more detailed controls such as time-of-day restrictions, daily usage limits, and instant app pauses for family moments.
Stronger content safety and age-appropriate apps
<img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://r2.myc.my/bb5e343480d7b919d55f9011cfd4ea3cabf4989559aa301a732efcb4f071e299" />
Communication Safety tools are also being upgraded. Apple will now automatically detect and blur sensitive content, including nudity, across Messages, AirDrop, contact posters and FaceTime video calls. On-device machine learning is used to flag such content before a child views or sends it.
In addition, Apple is introducing a Declared Age Range API, which allows apps to access a child&rsquo;s age range without collecting their exact birth date. This is designed to help developers deliver more suitable content while reducing unnecessary data collection.
The App Store will also be updated with more detailed age ratings, giving parents clearer guidance when selecting apps for their children.
Easier setup for child accounts and improved Screen Time
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/33d5f3a7a516378d7c5aad80c2731241c3123e109cb896582774d570ef42d4a4" />
Apple is making Child Account setup simpler during device onboarding. Parents will be able to configure safety settings more quickly, while default protections will still apply even if a child is not fully added to a family group.
Child Accounts remain required for users under 13 and available up to age 18.
Screen Time is also being redesigned, offering a clearer overview of device usage, most-used apps and recommended controls. Parents can now adjust permissions instantly, extend app access when needed, or limit usage during key moments such as meals or study time.
Wider debate around online safety and regulation
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/ea437a211e17d6ce4a8cf511cf0dcc1ec07e415ad1f2b6692dcb0f0e7a6fac78" />
Apple&rsquo;s announcement comes amid increasing global pressure on tech companies to improve protections for children online. In the UK, regulators have been tightening requirements around age-appropriate design, while countries like Australia and others are introducing or considering restrictions on underage social media access.
In Malaysia, the MCMC has proposed measures requiring social media users under 16 to verify their age using MyKad or official identification documents.
However, Apple&rsquo;s WWDC presentation was also met with protest outside its headquarters, where advocacy groups criticised the company over the continued availability of child sexual abuse material (CSAM) online and called for stronger action.
Rollout across Apple&rsquo;s ecosystem
The new child safety features will roll out alongside Apple&rsquo;s next major software updates, including iOS 27, iPadOS 27, macOS 27, watchOS 27, visionOS 27 and tvOS 27 later this year.
Apple says the goal is to give parents better tools to guide their children&rsquo;s digital habits while maintaining privacy, security and a balanced online experience.

Apple Rolls Out Expanded Child Safety Features Across Devices At WWDC 2026

For decades, Malaysia has been recognised as a multicultural nation where people of different backgrounds and faiths live alongside one another. While the country has long hosted refugees and displaced communities seeking safety, public sentiment towards the Rohingya community has become increasingly divided in recent months.
Social media has seen growing criticism, heated debates and calls for stricter action, particularly following several viral incidents that have reignited discussions over their presence in the country.
Who Are the Rohingya and Why Are They in Malaysia?
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/4826461ee26a302c751b731f95e42a79cc7b52121e93f8fc47587f85a3b61dde" />
The Rohingya are a Muslim ethnic minority originally from Myanmar&rsquo;s Rakhine State. For years, they have faced persecution, discrimination and violence in their homeland, forcing many to flee in search of safety. Malaysia has become one of the destinations for Rohingya refugees due to its Muslim-majority population and relative stability, although the country does not formally recognise refugees under domestic law.
Many Rohingya families have since built lives in Malaysia while waiting for long-term resettlement opportunities through international agencies. However, issues surrounding undocumented migration, employment, housing and public resources have continued to fuel debate among Malaysians.
Viral Four-Storey &ldquo;Flat&rdquo; Sparks Public Concern
<iframe style="border: none; overflow: hidden;" src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/video.php?height=476&amp;href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Freel%2F1526103309220755%2F&amp;show_text=false&amp;width=267&amp;t=0" width="267" height="476" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>&nbsp;
The latest controversy erupted after an old video recorded by radio personality and actor Pak Azad resurfaced online, showing what appeared to be a four-storey building hidden within Sungai Tekali, Hulu Langat.
Initially stumbling upon the structure while travelling for a filming session, Pak Azad expressed shock at its unusual appearance, questioning whether it had been self-built rather than developed through conventional construction methods. The building featured unfinished brickwork, zinc roofing over corridor walkways and what appeared to be improvised water and electrical connections, prompting many online to question its legality and safety.
The footage quickly spread across social media, with many alleging that the building was occupied by members of the Rohingya community and had been constructed without official approval.
Authorities Point To Landowners As The Root Cause
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/9eb023c087c5a3a329e9971a053fca586dbb701a34506fd8cff25b6ceb432c90" />
Following the renewed attention, the Kajang Municipal Council (MPKj) confirmed that the structure had indeed been built without approval from local authorities and issued notices under existing legal provisions.
Investigations found that no planning permission or construction applications had been submitted through the council&rsquo;s approval system despite the development occupying multiple land lots, including part of a government river reserve.
Dusun Tua assemblyman Datuk Johan Abd Aziz explained that the issue had already been raised during Hulu Langat District Action Council meetings since last year. According to him, multiple enforcement operations had already taken place, but the main obstacle lies with landowners who allegedly permitted foreigners to occupy the land and construct buildings while also facilitating access to water and electricity.
He stressed that enforcement should not focus solely on the residents but also on those who enabled the settlement to exist in the first place. Based on information shared by authorities, around 400 Rohingya individuals are believed to have established a settlement in the area.
Previous Enforcement Operations Already Conducted
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/76f71565bb7f97ad46f484d091c25ba57c0681c16c7213ae8262101a25db7c90" />
Authorities also revealed that the premises had previously been targeted during an integrated enforcement operation in February last year.
During that raid, dozens of foreign nationals, including men, women and children, were detained for immigration-related offences. A local individual linked to the property owner was also reportedly issued documentation by immigration authorities during the operation.
Police have since indicated that the site is currently believed to house both the property owner&rsquo;s family and local tenants, although investigations into the overall legality of the structure and land use remain ongoing.
Growing Calls To Remove Rohingya From Malaysia
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/8725d9c32e5f46b3cd60f54a06f9736c10cdd0098910be6a490d0629c115b756" />
The Sungai Tekali controversy has unfolded against a backdrop of increasing frustration among sections of the Malaysian public.
Across social media, petitions and campaigns calling for the removal of Rohingya refugees from Malaysia have gained traction, with critics citing concerns over illegal settlements, undocumented migration, public safety and pressure on local resources.
At the same time, humanitarian organisations have warned that online discussions have increasingly crossed into misinformation, harassment and hate speech directed at the refugee community.
Several civil society groups, including refugee advocates, have raised concerns over reports of threats, doxing and intimidation targeting Rohingya leaders and volunteers. They argue that while legitimate discussions about immigration and law enforcement should continue, entire communities should not be dehumanised or blamed collectively for the actions of individuals.
Rohingya Community Appeals For Compassion
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/636e3d923ee6b83a6bdf5abc16c3f01a49c4ee8a95a23b34059b34b55f8b1b5d" />
Amid the growing backlash, a Rohingya community group recently published an emotional open letter addressed to Malaysians and the government, appealing to be seen as fellow human beings rather than as burdens.
In the letter, they expressed gratitude for the refuge Malaysia has provided while acknowledging that many locals have genuine concerns about their presence. They also urged members of their own community to remain respectful and appreciative of the country that has sheltered them.
The group emphasised that many Rohingya did not leave Myanmar in search of better opportunities but because they believed remaining there would threaten their survival. They appealed for understanding, stating that they simply wish to live in safety and dignity while hoping for a more secure future.

A Complex Issue With No Easy Answers
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/0b432b74c3ab75bbd063050214edd5fa8941210e7a73c45b883540694f3764d7" />
The debate surrounding the Rohingya community in Malaysia continues to expose the difficult balance between humanitarian responsibility, immigration enforcement and public concerns.
While the illegal settlement in Sungai Tekali has prompted renewed scrutiny over land use and regulatory enforcement, authorities have indicated that accountability should extend beyond occupants to those who enabled such developments. At the same time, discussions surrounding refugees remain highly sensitive, with many Malaysians calling for stronger action while others urge compassion and fact-based dialogue.
As investigations into the Sungai Tekali settlement continue, the incident has become another focal point in the broader national conversation about refugees, governance and the responsibilities shared by both authorities and society.

Authorities say landowners who allegedly allowed the illegal structures to be built should also be held accountable.
