Malaysians abroad band together to celebrate the nation


Celebrating together: Anak-anak Malaysia in Bangladesh waving the Jalur Gemilang at the National Martyr’s Monument in Savar, outside Dhaka.

PETALING JAYA: Absence makes the heart grow fonder and over the last few weeks, many anak-anak Malaysia overseas have joined hands with The Star to send back messages of love for their homeland.

With the 54th Malaysia Day celebrations taking place today, those who miss Malaysia dearly include English teacher Guhan Sivasharen and engineer Uthaya Kumaran, a married couple based in South Korea.
