Tunku Abdul Rahman’s enduring legacy


THIS Saturday (Feb 8) will be the 122nd birth anniversary of our nation’s founding father, Tunku Abdul Rahman Putra Al Haj (pic). Let not the day go unnoticed.

Tunku was the driving force behind the peaceful transition of power from British colonialism to Malayan independence. Unlike many other nations of Asia and Africa where the tree of liberty had to be watered with the blood of martyrs, Malaya gained independence peacefully due to Tunku’s wise leadership of the independence struggle.
