Kulai factory closed after flying Jalur Gemilang, Johor flag upside down
Operations at the premises have been halted pending an explanation, says state exco Jafni Shukor.
A factory in Kulai, Johor was temporarily ordered to cease operations following its discovery of the Jalur Gemilang and the Johor flag being flown upside down. Johor's housing and local government committee chairman, Jafni Shukor, emphasized the seriousness of the incident, stating that both flags symbolize the country and state's identity, dignity, and sovereignty.
He firmly stated that the matter couldn't be dismissed as a minor error and needed to be addressed promptly. The Kulai Municipal Council (MPKu) temporarily closed the factory until the company provided an explanation. Following the discovery, the flags were immediately corrected, and the district officer is collaborating with MPKu and other agencies to ensure proper action is taken.
Jafni cautioned businesses and industrial operators throughout Johor to display flags correctly and responsibly, warning that carelessness is not an acceptable excuse for disrespecting state and national symbols.
