31 August 2009 marks the 52th year of our beloved country's independence from British colonisation. It is a national day of Malaysia commemorating the contribution of the Father of Independence, Tunku Abdul Rahman and other calibre leaders, who have strived hard to get the independence of the Federation of Malaya from British.
The celebration of our 52th National Day seems to be much quieter compared to previous years. I hardly see the Jalur Gemilang hang outside the houses, buildings and street. I used to see lots of Jalur Gemilang fluttering on cars but I do not even see one this year. How sad. Where are the usual things that arouse the Merdeka mood? =(
There will not even have the Merdeka parade this year due to the contagious pandemic H1N1 and fasting month for the Muslims. Even so, Malaysians especially the younger generations should show their true patriotic spirits by being civilised citizens and maintaining the good name of the country, not necessary to take part in parade or wave the flag to show patriotism.
Everyday should be the national day for all Malaysians, what do you think? =)
