OUR country will soon be celebrating its 60th anniversary of independence. We can take much pride and satisfaction for the progress that has been achieved in building the country to become one of the most successful among the developing countries. Not many former colonies have survived as a democratic state with a strong economy.
Malaysia’s success must be attributed to the wise leadership of our founding fathers who steered the progress of the country with moderation and pragmatism in its economic, social and religious development. They maintained friendly ties with the former colonial power and with the international community.
