　　The report said that Muhyiddin had always thought highly of confucian thoughts and moral values. When evaluating Analects of Confucius , he said, “ In ancient China, Confucius praised highly moral education and thought it as a core idea. And Confucius’s book written down the values pertaining to politics, history, ethics, education and arts, which I believe will serve to reduce crime rate.”

　　In recent years, the Malaysian economy has developed rapidly, but also led to many social problems. Muhyiddin said, “ the economic development must balance with cultural quality. Thus, the government should vigorously promote the lofty values to reduce the number of young people involved in drugs, illegal racing, baby-abandoning, gambling and excessive drinking, whose bad influences will affect the whole society. ”

　　馬來西亞副首相：讀《論語》能減低犯罪率

　　據(jù)新海峽時報8月8日報道， 馬來西亞副首相丹斯里·慕尤丁近日為全國“崇高價值觀預(yù)防罪案嘉年華”主持開幕儀式。在開幕致辭中，慕尤丁呼吁青少年多讀中國經(jīng)典著作《論語》。

　　報道稱，慕尤丁一直以來都非常認(rèn)同孔子的儒家思想及道德價值觀。在評價《論語》時，慕尤丁這樣說：“在中國古文明時代，孔子推崇道德教育為思想核心，其作品《論語》詳盡記載了政治、歷史、道德、教育、藝術(shù)等方面的價值觀。我深信，這些思想將有助降低犯罪率。”

　　近年來，馬來西亞經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展迅猛，但也衍生出很多社會問題。慕尤丁說，“經(jīng)濟(jì)的發(fā)展必須與人文素質(zhì)平衡。因此，政府應(yīng)該大力推行崇高價值觀，以減少青少年涉及毒品、非法飚車、棄嬰、賭博、酗酒等犯罪行為，以免這些不良風(fēng)氣影響整個社會。”
