Jalur Gemilang without moon and star an isolated incident, says Terengganu MB
Ahmad Samsuri Mokhtar says the state government will investigate the incident and ensure that it does not happen again.
On a recent Friday, a video surfaced showing the Jalur Gemilang flag in Kuala Terengganu without its moon and star, sparking widespread discussion on social media. Terengganu Chief Minister Ahmad Samsuri Mokhtar dismissed the incident as unintentional and isolated, promising an investigation. He emphasized that responsibility would be held accountable.
Meanwhile, Kuala Terengganu Mayor Lizan Che Mat clarified that the flag had initially been complete, but the moon and star had become detached due to strong winds. Consequently, the flag was promptly removed and replaced on Friday, with the city council vowing to uphold proper standards going forward. Jelutong MP RSN Rayer criticized the lack of response from Umno Youth, hinting at potential bias due to the incident not occurring in Penang.
