Fahmi Wishes Happy Father's Day
GENERAL
KUALA LUMPUR, June 15 (Bernama) -- Communications Minister Datuk Fahmi Fadzil today wished all fathers a Happy Father's Day.
'To all the fathers who are always sacrificing for the happiness of their families, Happy Father's Day. You are our hero. Your deeds can never be repaid.
'May the love and sacrifices of fathers continue to be a source of strength and inspiration for all of us. Thank you for everything,' he wrote in a Facebook post.
Meanwhile, Minister in the Prime Minister's Department (Federal Territories) Datuk Seri Dr Zaliha Mustafa also shared a Father's Day message on Facebook, dedicated to her father, Mustafa Mohd Salleh, and her husband, Dr Ahmad Adzlan Musa.
'A father's crucial role in building a strong family must be appreciated. As a daughter, I am grateful to my father, Mustafa Mohd Salleh, who raised us siblings with sincere and honest values.
'As a wife and mother, I see how my husband, Dr Ahmad Adzlan Musa, fulfils his role as a father to our children. Calm, patient and always there when needed. A father's role does not stop at providing; he must also offer emotional support and be a partner in raising children in today's increasingly challenging world,' she added.
Deputy Communications Minister Teo Nie Ching described a father's role as the head of the family — someone who bears the heavy responsibility of shaping his children's future, while also being a protector, guide, and source of strength.
'Today we celebrate those who rarely ask for praise, yet always give unconditionally — and we call him father. A father's love is forever. Grateful today and every day for you. Happy Father's Day,' she wrote on Facebook.
Deputy Entrepreneur Development and Cooperatives Minister Datuk Seri R. Ramanan also took to Facebook to extend Father's Day wishes to all the great men who hold the title of father.

Wee (fourth left) hands over packets of 'shoutao' to this group of fathers at the Stutong Community Market. — MBKS photo KUCHING (June 15): The Kuching South City Council (MBKS) celebrated Father's Day today by distributing 'shoutao' (longevity buns) at the Stutong Community Market and Kenyalang Market. The initiative, led by Kuching South mayor Dato Wee Hong Seng, was part of the council's ongoing commitment to its Age-Friendly Cities programme. In a statement, Wee said the distribution of the buns served not only as a token of appreciation for fathers, but as a cultural reminder of filial piety. 'While Mother's Day is widely commemorated, Father's Day can sometimes pass quietly. Thus, it is important to give due recognition to the vital role fathers play in shaping families and communities. 'Many times, we remember our mothers on Mother's Day, but we must also remind ourselves that our fathers too have made countless sacrifices for us. Today (June 15) is a small gesture to honour their strength, love and commitment. 'MBKS hopes the act will inspire the younger generation to cherish and respect their parents in line with the Age-Friendly Cities programme, which aims to promote inter-generational care and stronger family bonds,' he said. Wee added MBKS remains committed to fostering a caring, inclusive and respectful city for people of all ages. community Father's Day Kuching South City Council wee hong seng

SUPP Piasau honours fathers with heartfelt Father's Day gifts
Fathers proudly accept their specially curated Father's Day tokens of appreciation. MIRI (June 15): Fathers in Miri received special tokens of appreciation in conjunction with Father's Day today, courtesy of the Sarawak United People's Party (SUPP) Piasau service centre team. The SUPP Piasau mobile service team distributed 500 face towels, creatively rolled and packaged to resemble cakes, to male members of the public at the Open Air Market, Senior Citizen Street at Persiaran Kabor, and Miri Vegetable Market. This thoughtful gift-giving initiative was the result of a collective effort involving branch committee members, as well as the women's and youth wings. Chia Kah Furng, special aide to SUPP Piasau branch chairman Datuk Sebastian Ting – who is also Deputy Minister for Tourism, Creative Industry and Performing Arts I – explained that it was their initiative to express their deep appreciation and love for fathers. 'Though Asian parents don't easily show affection, youths need not wait for special occasions to show their love and gratitude to their parents,' Chia remarked. Chia (seated second left) and other SUPP Piasau mobile service team poses for a photo session prior to distributing the Father's Day gifts. He further noted that whie the gifts were modest in nature, the act itself was a means to foster a loving and appreciative culture within the community, and to encourage younger generations to value family bonds. 'Fathers often do not express their love openly, yet they tirelessly work day and night for the well-being of their families,' said Chia. 'Their sacrifices deserve recognition,' he added. He highlighted the importance of family values and the need to embed love, warmth, and unity within the community culture. Looking ahead, Chia said SUPP Piasau intends to continue organising community-centric programmes that strengthen social cohesion and promote the message of love in daily life.
