Kuching tuan rumah sambutan Hari Malaysia 2026

Kuala Lumpur: This year's Malaysia Day celebration will take place at the Borneo Convention Center Kuala (BCCK) in Sarawak, Prime Minister Fahmi Fadzil announced. The decision to select BCCK was made after the first meeting of the celebration preparations on Monday, with the location chosen due to its capacity and space suitability.

The next meeting is scheduled for August 24 as preparations for the Malaysia Day celebration, stated Fahmi during a press conference following his participation in the Express Express Gemilang Japen@Petronas event at Petronas NPE Beachside. Malaysia Day celebrations are held annually on September 16 to commemorate the formation of the Malaysian federation.

Meanwhile, Fahmi said that Malaysia Communications committed to providing round-the-clock public transport services during the national day celebration in Putrajaya on August 30 and 31. He said this is an improvement compared to previous years, particularly to facilitate the public attending the event in Putrajaya. "So, this is an improvement compared to before.

But we also hope to improve other facilities. But I can announce today that Prasarana has committed to operating 24 hours. So, we hope this will help more people not only come to Putrajaya but also return or go back after the national day program," he said.
