Premis pasang Jalur Gemilang, bendera Johor terbalik ditutup sementara

A small industrial premise in Kulai Municipal Council (MPKu) area was temporarily closed after flying the inverted Johor flag and the Malaysian flag, according to Johor Executive Council member Jafni Md Shukor. The action was taken under the Small Industrial Facilities, Trade, and Industry Act 2019 to allow the company to provide explanations and complete the commitment.

Both flags were corrected immediately. Simultaneously, the police are conducting an investigation while the relevant company officer will be contacted urgently for clarifications, his Facebook post said. Such an incident cannot be tolerated as an excuse to show leniency towards honoring national and state symbols. This kind of disrespect cannot be considered trivial, cannot be normalized, and cannot be allowed to go unnoticed without action.

The state government will not compromise on honoring the Malaysian flag. We can only wait for the investigation results to determine the cause and responsibility of the parties involved, but our principles are clear. National dignity must be maintained, and the law must be respected. He reminds all owners of premises, companies, and industries to ensure the correct and responsible placement of the Malaysian flag.

Earlier, pictures showed the inverted Malaysian flag and Johor flag placed in front of an industrial premise, particularly on the independence day.
