King Ghaz, a true believer in Asean spirit, among first Asean People’s Award recipient


King Ghaz.

KUALA LUMPUR: Tun Ghazali Shafie was once quoted as saying: "The bamboo is God's gift. It is a great teacher. Therefore, Asian peoples should learn from the bamboo, grow in a cluster while remaining free and independent. The taller of the bamboos will bow its head in humility. No wind can break a cluster of bamboo."

"Today, the late Ghazali, fondly known as King Ghaz, a true believer in Asean who embodied the true meaning of the region, its organisation and people, would have been so proud to be among the first Asean People's Award recipients, said his grandson, Ahmad Nazmi Bakhtiar Ghazali, 25.
