KUALA LUMPUR: Communications Minister Datuk Seri Fahmi Fadzil will bring a book of speeches by the country's founding leaders to the next Cabinet meeting and place a copy on the table of every minister.

He also plans to raise funds to print another 2,000 copies of Great Wisdom of the First Malaysians by the late J. Victor Morais, which has been reprinted in a limited number of copies that are not for sale.

"I was told by Datuk James Sarda that this book is actually not sold to the general public.

"I am of the view that if we have a treasure of thoughts, expressions and words from leaders we regard as the fathers and mothers of Malaysia, is it appropriate if there are only 2,000 copies of this book?" he said.
