PENANG, with its rich heritage and multicultural character, was a fitting backdrop for the national Malaysia Day celebration, themed “Malaysia Madani: Rakyat Disantuni”.
Families and friends thronged Penang International Convention Cultural and Arts Centre (Picca) at Butterworth Arena for the event that was both a commemoration of history and vibrant showcase of culture, unity and community spirit.
