Today Malaysia Celebrates 63 years of Merdeka. Due to the Covid 19 pandemic and the MCO the anniversary celebration was held according to the New Norm. As a sovereign and
peaceful country Malaysia has succeeded in all development efforts and is now one of the
most developed countries in the region. On 31.8.1957 the day Malaya was
declared as an independence country ( Merdeka) dressed in the Scout uniforms I was presence at the Padang in Kuantan, the capital city and of the state of Pahang where the British flag the Union Jack flag was lowered and the
Malayan flag the Jalur Gemilang was raised. At that time I was eighteen years old.
My date of birth was 17.8.1939 and I grew up during the British colonial era and the
Japanese Occupation from 1941 to 1945. I start schooling in 1946 after the
country returned to peace. In 1957 I graduated from high school after taking the
Form V examination. I am very proud that my country Malaysia has continued to
succeed and prosper. Alhamdulillah.
Sharing my thoughts.
