TODAY, our unity government will launch a programme to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the passing of Tun Dr Ismail Abdul Rahman (pic), one of Malaysia’s finest statesmen who was appointed deputy prime minister in 1970 and died in office three years later at the age of 57.
The programme is being held in conjunction with the National Month celebration and aims to educate the younger generation about Dr Ismail’s significant contributions to the country’s development.
