Jalur Gemilang tanpa bulan, bintang, Dr Sam jawab kes terpencil

Jalur Gemilang without the moon and star symbols, presented without explanation by Dr Sam, proved to be the most peculiar incident, according to the State Chief Minister, Ahmad Samsuri Mokhtar. The event, which occurred at Batu Buruk Ground in Kuala Terengganu, was described as peculiar and unexpected by the Chief Minister.

The incident came to light after a video surfaced showing the Jalur Gemilang flag being erected without the moon and star symbols. The incident sparked concerns and reactions from netizens. Datuk Bandar Majlis Bandaraya Kuala Terengganu (MBKT), Lizan Che Mat, clarified that the Jalur Gemilang flag actually had the moon and star symbols, but they had been removed during the construction process due to the strong wind.

In response to the incident, the authorities took immediate action by lowering the affected flag on Friday and replacing it with a new, complete Jalur Gemilang flag. They emphasized that the previous flag was not lacking in moon and star symbols; it was the part where they were attached that had been removed due to the strong wind.

Moving forward, MBKT pledged to take the matter seriously and ensure that the flags being raised are fully complete and meet the established specifications.
