Sixty-six years ago, Malaysia’s first prime minister Tunku Abdul Rahman Putra Al-Haj uttered the magic word on a special day that marked the beginning of a change to the country’s development. Malaysians should never forget this date.
It is a responsibility of every citizen to ensure the country that consists of various races remains in a good state and safeguard the harmony between the races that has existed for so long.
Universiti Malaysia Terengganu (UMT), an institution with a community of multi-races, is in support of every effort to strengthen unity among society, in line with the celebration of the national month 2023, in which the National Day is observed. Its theme, Malaysia MADANI: Determination of Unity Fulfils Hope, was launched by Minister of Communications and Digital of Malaysia last May.
Vice Chancellor Prof. Dato’ Dr. Mazlan Abd Ghaffar, accompanied by UMT’s management team and a group of students, launched the Wave the Jalur Gemilang campaign at the university’s main gate.
More than 500 small-sized Jalur Gemilang flags were attached to the vehicles and distributed to the staff, students, and those entering the campus this morning to enhance the aura of independence and show appreciation towards the earlier generation who fought hard for the freedom.
A university’s role is to produce graduates that are of high quality. They must be holistic, independent thinkers, and patriotic enough to lead the country in the future.
