16 Sept iltizam sentiasa dibaharui, tiada wilayah terpinggir, kata PM

Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim declared on 16 September that no region is considered peripheral or marginal, and no community feels isolated, stating that there is no segment of the population left behind from the progress of the nation. Malaysia commemorates its national day by reminding that the country was built on a promise, or a pledge, between the government and the people, between the territories and the federal government, and between loyalty and justice, said Anwar Ibrahim.

He affirmed that 16 September is a commitment that must always be updated, ensuring that no territory is viewed as distant or peripheral, no community feels alienated, and no segment of the population is left behind from the nation's advancement. However, Anwar acknowledged that there are times when the nation's journey veers off course, when issues related to certain groups, geographical disparities, and disparities are allowed to widen into barriers and dividing lines.

"The sea can separate us but it cannot separate the spirit and hope of the nation," said Ibrahim, sharing his message on Facebook in conjunction with this year's Malaysia Day celebration.
