National Month kick-off to reflect unity and progress


KUALA LUMPUR: The National Month and Fly the Jalur Gemilang 2026 launch ceremony will be held on Sunday to mark the start of this year’s National Month celebrations.

According to a post on the Merdeka360 Facebook page, the ceremony, scheduled to begin at 10am, will be broadcast live on Radio Televisyen Malaysia (RTM), Bernama TV, as well as via Facebook Live on the Merdeka360, Ministry of Communications and Department of Information Malaysia platforms.

The event will be held at Institut Latihan Kementerian Kesihatan Malaysia Sultan Azlan Shah in Perak, Bernama reported.

The theme, “Malaysia Madani: Kesejahteraan Dinikmati”, has been chosen for this year’s National Day and Malaysia Day 2026 (HKHM2026) celebrations, while the Malaysia Madani logo has been retained as the official logo until next year.

This year’s theme reflects the ­government’s commitment to building a progressive, inclusive and prosperous nation based on the Malaysia Madani framework.

Grounded in the values of justice, humanity and public welfare, it underscores that the nation’s prosperity should be enjoyed fairly and comprehensively by all Malaysians without exception.

To enliven the HKHM2026 ­celebrations, seven supporting programmes and patriotic activities have been lined up nationwide, namely Kembara Bahasa HKHM, Quran Hour, Ambang Merdeka, Merdeka Countdown, RIUH Merdeka and the National Statesmen Commemoration Ceremony.
