PUTRAJAYA: Malaysians should liven up Malaysia Day by celebrating it wherever they are, says Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.

“Even though the event will be held in Kuching, Sarawak, we in the peninsula, especially in Putrajaya, are obliged to celebrate this day with the same spirit as the people in Sabah and Sarawak,” he said when closing the Rural and Regional Development Ministry’s Kembara Merdeka Desa Madani programme here yesterday.
