(Picture: Bernama)\n\nPengunjung who plan to attend the national day ceremony on Monday are advised to wear N95 face masks to protect themselves from the adverse effects of the recent haze which has been affecting the country. Prime Minister and Chairman of the National Day and Malaysia Malaysia Day Organizing Committee (HKHM) 2026, Fahmi Fadzil, said this is in line with the Ministry of Health (KKM) advice, particularly for individuals at risk of haze-related health issues. He added that the organizers of the HKHM 2026 have provided N95 face masks to more than 10,000 National Day 2026 participants to ensure their health remains in good condition. \"If they (participants) feel they need to wear (face mask), they can. It's not mandatory, but it's up to the individual. \"So, we advise parents bringing young children or those with asthma to bring face masks, especially N95,\" he said during a media briefing following the full-house National Day 2026 ceremony at Putrajaya Stadium, according to Bernama.\n\nIn addition, KKM medical teams are also deployed at strategic locations to ensure immediate medical assistance is provided to anyone in need. \"We have locations with KKM doctors deployed to manage any health emergencies. As of now, all medical facilities are operating normally, with no issues,\" he said. Meanwhile, he said the full-day ceremony is running smoothly according to the plan set by organizers. He said there will be 823 media personnel working at the National Day 2026 ceremony, an increase from the estimated 600 personnel last year. \"This is a positive and commendable increase... I believe this year, in terms of internet access, there will be no problems and it will help media personnel cover the event,\" he said. He added that the Multimedia Communications Authority, which oversees the Network Monitoring Centre, has installed additional communication equipment at 102 broadcasting sites to ensure smooth coverage of the National Day celebration. As for safety concerns during the event, Fahmi said there have been no incidents reported so far. \"So, the public order control remains vigilant and there are no issues at the moment,\" he said.",
