Replace torn and tattered flags as a sign of respect

Special convoy: Md Jais (in grey) and State Information Department Director Hamdan Hasnan (in black) flagging off the Merdeka Jalur Gemilang Ramadan and Aidilfitri 2012 convoy. The group will be travelling throughout the state to hand out flags and conduct programmes in line with the Hari Raya and National Day celebrations this year.

JOHOR BARU: Shops and hypermarkets should not solely concentrate on promoting Hari Raya but should also promote items linked to the National Day celebrations.

State Youth and Sports Committee chairman Md Jais Sarday said that it was sad that not many Johoreans were flying the national flag especially with the National Day drawing near.
