COME Wednesday, our nation will be celebrating National Day. Thanks to our founding fathers, we are where we are today – on the road to being a developed country. We are proud that our nation has progressed thus far. We have overcome insurmountable barriers and challenges to build up a strong nation.
Our Jalur Gemilang will be hoisted and flown proudly in houses, offices and buildings. But is flying the Jalur Gemilang the only way to show our patriotism? To me, patriotism can be demonstrated in other ways, the most important being to protect and nurture the harmony we are currently enjoying. The Government should ensure there is no derailment in this objective as, sadly, there are groups who are bent on doing this now.
