All radio and television stations nationwide were instructed to alter their programs throughout the day in her memory. Fahmi Fadzil stated that the directive came in light of Dr Hasmah's passing. The government also acknowledged her contributions as a mother and a doctor who had greatly benefited society. \"She has left an indelible impression on many people with her service as a mother and a doctor who will always be remembered,\" he told journalists after the final tribute at her family residence.\n\nFahmi Fadzil, also sharing personal memories, recalled his school days when he prepared a drama performance with friends, which was witnessed by Dr Hasmah.
