Put Jalur Gemilang badge on kindy kids too, proposes Unity Minister
SUNGAI PETANI: The Unity Ministry is proposing for the Jalur Gemilang badge to be worn students at kindergartens as well. Its minister Datuk Aaron Ago Dagang said the initiative would help to foster patriotism from an early stage. "It's already in place for school children (from Year One and above) and there should be no issue in extending it to kindergarten students," he said when launching the "Jom Baca Bersama 10 Minit 2025" and "Baucar Buku Semarak Membaca 2025" on Tuesday (April 22). The use of the Jalur Gemilang badge on student uniforms, implemented in stages across all educational institutions under the purview of the Education Ministry, began on Monday (April 21). The initiative covers government schools, government-aided schools, matriculation colleges, and the Malaysian Teacher Education Institute, with the aim of nurturing patriotism among both students and educators. – Bernama
