3,000 vehicles get Jalur Gemilang magnets nationwide

A nationwide initiative distributed 3,000 free Jalur Gemilang magnets to vehicles across Malaysia today, as part of the Japen@Petronas Jalur Gemilang Expression Programme. Organized by the Communications Ministry and Petronas, the event coincided with National Month celebrations and aimed to strengthen the 1 House 1 Jalur Gemilang (1R1JG) Campaign.

The magnets were handed out at 15 Petronas stations nationwide, with the first 200 vehicles at each station receiving a magnet. In Kuala Lumpur, Communications Minister Fahmi Fadzil attached a magnet to a member of the public's car at the New Pantai Expressway Pantai Dalam Petronas station. In Kelantan, the magnets allow for easy and safe display of the national flag on vehicles.

The programme also included the flag-off of the Kembara Merdeka Jalur Gemilang X JAGO convoy from Tumpat to Kota Baru, which concluded on August 14. In Perlis, the event was well-received, with the public eager to obtain the magnets for their vehicles.
