PUTRAJAYA: Communications Minister Datuk Fahmi Fadzil urged all Malaysians to actively participate in the various programmes lined up in conjunction with this year’s National Day celebrations, themed ‘Malaysia Madani, Rakyat Disantuni’.
Speaking at the ministry’s monthly assembly yesterday, Fahmi said full details are available on the Merdeka360 portal at www.merdeka360.my.
“One of the major highlights is Riuh Merdeka 2025, a 30-hour celebration beginning Aug 30 at the parking area of the Millennium Monument in Putrajaya.
“Let’s come together and make it a memorable occasion.
“We also have the Quran Hour programme at the National Mosque in Kuala Lumpur on Aug 30, as well as a national address by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim at MAEPS Serdang on the same day.
“There are many other exciting events you can attend on the Merdeka360 calendar,” he said.
Meanwhile, Fahmi expressed confidence in the readiness of organisers for the National Day parade and procession in Putrajaya, saying preparations have been proceeding smoothly.
“I apologise for not being able to attend the full dress rehearsals from Aug 27-29 due to official commitments, but I will be there on Aug 29 before heading to the Cabinet meeting,” he said, Bernama reported.
The full dress rehearsals are scheduled from 6am to 11am on Aug 27-29, and roads around Putrajaya’s core island will be closed to traffic from 6pm on Aug 29 until the parade concludes on Aug 31.
