Wearing Jalur Gemilang Badge Effective In Enhancing Spirit Of Love For Country
KUALA LUMPUR, April 21 (Bernama) -- Students wearing the Jalur Gemilang badge on their uniform will be an effective way to instil a patriotic spirit and cultivate a love for the country from their school days. Negeri Sembilan Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Aminuddin Harun said this would be a solid foundation in educating loyal, caring, and proud citizens towards a national identity. "I feel very proud to see these children wearing the Jalur Gemilang badge with enthusiasm and confidence, We want to raise a generation that always loves, cares, and wants to fight for the country. "This country belongs to all of us The spirit of togetherness is what needs to be continuously nurtured for a brighter future for Negeri Sembilan and Malaysia," he told reporters at the Aidilfitri Celebrations, organised by the Seremban City Council (MBS) today. Aminuddin said that by emphasising the symbol or badge of the Jalur Gemilang, the spirit of camaraderie among students can be strengthened, carrying through to their adulthood. Meanwhile, in Kelantan, schools that are not under the purview of the Ministry of Education (MOE), including those under the Kelantan Islamic Foundation (YIK), are encouraged to implement the wearing of the Jalur Gemilang badge among their students. State Education Department (JPN) deputy director (School Management Sector) Mat Lazim Mohammad said the department is open to the participation of YIK schools or any other educational institutions interested in implementing this initiative. "However, its implementation must adhere to the standards or guidelines set in the MOE Circular Letter," he told reporters at the Symbolic Ceremony of the Jalur Gemilang Badge Wearing for Educational Institutions under the MOE at the Kelantan level in Kota Bharu today. Commenting further, Mat Lazim said that among the procedures for wearing the badge that must be followed are wearing it on the right side of the uniform; aligned with the name tag; wearing it in a neat, clean, and undamaged condition; and it should not be used on inappropriate clothing or arbitrarily.

Educational institutions not under MOE encouraged to join in wear Jalur Gemilang badge initiative
KEPALA BATAS: Educational institutions not under the purview of the Ministry of Education (MOE) are encouraged to participate in the initiative to wear the Jalur Gemilang badge on student uniforms. Education Minister Fadhlina Sidek said that the aim is to ensure the initiative reaches all students across the country and garners support from all sectors. 'Beginning today, across Malaysia, a total of 5.3 million students (in schools) under the Ministry of Education have started wearing the Jalur Gemilang badge on their school uniforms. The official launch of this initiative is being held simultaneously nationwide. 'Therefore, we encourage educational institutions not under the MOE to join us in this effort, so that the spirit of patriotism promoted through this initiative is shared by all students and supported by all stakeholders,' she told reporters after the Symbolic Ceremony for Wearing the Jalur Gemilang Badge at Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Datuk Haji Ahmad Badawi today. The ministry had earlier announced the phased implementation of the Jalur Gemilang badge on uniforms in all its educational institutions, effective today. The initiative will involve government schools, government-aided schools, matriculation colleges, and the Malaysian Teacher Education Institute to instil a deep sense of patriotism among both students and educators. However, Fadhlina said students who do not wear the badge will not face any punishment as the initiative is not meant to be punitive, but rather to cultivate a sense of love for the country. Expanding on the matter, Fadhlina said the initiative reflects the ministry's commitment to nurturing values of patriotism, unity, and national identity from the preschool level onwards across all educational institutions under its administration. She added that providing the Jalur Gemilang badge free of charge to all students is also intended to further enhance the spirit of patriotism, with support from teachers who will guide students on the appropriate usage and significance of the badge. 'It is also a symbol of pride and honour when students wear the Jalur Gemilang. I would like to extend my congratulations to all teachers, students, and school administrators who have embraced this initiative and ensured that today's launch went smoothly,' she said. She believed that with unwavering determination, enthusiasm, and commitment, it would foster a stronger MADANI generation, one that upholds the dignity of the nation and respects the national flag as a key symbol of identity and pride.
