Icon of unity and moderation


FEB 8 would have been the 118th birthday of Malaysia’s Bapa Kemerdekaan (Father of Independence) Tunku Abdul Rahman Putra Al-Haj.

It is regrettable that the day went by without any significant event to mark it. By right, the entire nation should have commemorated the occasion and paid a glowing tribute to our Father of Independence, who left a legacy of moderation, harmony and unity for all to emulate.
