KUALA LUMPUR: Themed Malaysia Madani: Rakyat Disantuni (Prioritising the People), this year’s National Day 2025 celebrations will feature an array of events, says Communications Minister Datuk Fahmi Fadzil.
He said the National Day logo featuring Malaysia Madani will also be maintained until 2027.
“The theme portrays the government’s priority to ensure the welfare of the rakyat will be emphasised,” he said when launching the theme and logo at Angkasapuri here yesterday.
Fahmi said National Day 2025 will commence with the launch event on July 25 in Muar, Johor, while the main event on Aug 31 will once again be held at Dataran Putrajaya.
To further strengthen the unity of the country’s regions and states, Malaysia Day on Sept 16 will be held in Penang, he added.
“Choosing Penang as the venue is in line with the rotation practice among Sabah, Sarawak and states in the peninsula to further strengthen the unity among the territories and states,” he explained.
He also said that several programmes have been outlined leading up to the main event in August and September, including 1 Rumah 1 Jalur Gemilang, Merdeka Countdown, Quran Hour and Wayang Pacak Merdeka.
“The flying of the Jalur Gemilang campaign this year will see an addition of two new clusters – industry and government agencies – on top of five clusters from last year.
“This campaign is to encourage the rakyat to fly the Jalur Gemilang at their premises to show respect and care for the country,” said Fahmi, who is also the National Day and Malaysia Day Main Committee chairman.
He urged the public to support the grand celebrations nationwide.
