NIBONG TEBAL: Malaysians must keep their patriotic spirit strong as the country fights the Covid-19 pandemic and goes through the recovery movement control order period, says Chief Minister Chow Kon Yeow.

“Let’s show our love to the country by flying the Jalur Gemilang,” he said when launching the state-level National Month celebration and Fly the Jalur Gemilang campaign at the Plaza Toll Complex of Sultan Abdul Halim Muadzam Shah in Batu Kawan.

He said in line with this year’s National Day theme “Malaysia Prihatin”, every Malaysian should work together in the fight against Covid-19.

He also expressed the state’s appreciation and thanks to the frontliners who assisted the government in fighting the pandemic.

Chow later flagged off the “Info of Wheels” Merdeka convoy and distributed mini Jalur Gemilang to commuters using the bridge.
