'Malaysia Madani: Rakyat Disantuni,' theme of 2025 National Day, Malaysia Day celebrations
KUALA LUMPUR: 'Malaysia Madani: Rakyat Disantuni' is this year's National Day and Malaysia Day celebrations, with the Malaysia Madani logo remaining the official symbol. Communications Minister Datuk Fahmi Fadzil said the theme reflects the government's priority in protecting people's welfare, following the Malaysia Madani aspiration that upholds the values of unity and prosperity. "…several key events have been planned to ignite the spirit of independence, among them the National Month and Fly the Jalur Gemilang launch ceremony, which will take place on July 27 at Dataran Tanjung Emas, Muar, Johor. "The National Day 2025 celebration will be held on Aug 31 at Dataran Putrajaya, while this year's Malaysia Day celebration will occur on Sept 16 in Penang in line with the rotational practice whereby the location alternates each year between Sabah, Sarawak, and Peninsular Malaysia," he said. He spoke to reporters during the weekly press conference held at the Tun Abdul Razak Broadcasting and Information Institute in Angkasapuri. Transport Minister Anthony Loke and Works Minister Datuk Seri Alexander Nanta Linggi were also present. Fahmi also announced that 14 complementary events will be held, including the Merdeka Countdown, the 2025 Kembara Merdeka Jalur Gemilang, and Wayang Pacak Merdeka (open-air cinema). He added that the 1 Rumah 1 Jalur Gemilang initiative, introduced last year to encourage Malaysians to fly the national flag, will continue this year with two additional new clusters, the industrial cluster and the government agency cluster. "In 2024, we successfully implemented this programme across five clusters, with a total of 698 activities carried out. The five participating clusters were Education, Higher Education, Health, Security, and Community. "This programme will encourage Malaysians to fly the Jalur Gemilang at their homes, offices, business premises, government agencies and their vehicles," he said. Fahmi also reminded the public to observe proper etiquette when flying the Jalur Gemilang, including not using damaged or torn flags. "The public can get more information about the celebrations, programme locations, and campaign materials through the official Merdeka360 portal," he added.
