Sabah had the most wonderful Malaysia Day celebration at Padang Merdeka on Sept 16, said Tourism, Culture and Environment Minister Datuk Christina Liew.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cDespite the sudden downpour and strong winds in the middle of the event, nothing could dampen the spirit of Malaysians who stayed until the end,\u201d said Liew, who is also the Organising Chairman of the event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201c(Co-organiser) Communications Minister Fahmi Fadzli and I are grateful to our team for the hard work they put into ensuring everything went smoothly,\u201d said Liew.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As hosts for this year\u2019s national celebrations, they ensured that all regions of Malaysia were represented in the performances, with artists from Sabah, Sarawak, and Peninsular Malaysia present, she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt was a celebration of our history as we remember how we became a nation 61 years ago, and also a celebration of our future, as we recognise that there is more that unites us than what separates us,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She also expressed her appreciation to all who were present at the event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYou made it more meaningful for us, the organisers, and we appreciate your joy and warmth.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMy appreciation to our Prime Minister, our Chief Minister, and the Premier of Sarawak, as well as all the foreign dignitaries who made the event such a special one,\u201d said Liew.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
