MUAR – Communications Minister Datuk Fahmi Fadzil has called on all Malaysians to support the “1 House 1 Jalur Gemilang” campaign as a symbol of patriotism and unity ahead of the National Day and Malaysia Day 2025 celebrations.

Fahmi, who is also chairman of the main committee for the National Day and Malaysia Day 2025 celebrations, encouraged the public to proudly display the national flag at their homes, vehicles, offices, schools, and business premises as a show of support.

“Fly the Jalur Gemilang proudly and properly wherever you are,” he said at the launch of the National Month and Fly the Jalur Gemilang 2025 Campaign at Dataran Tanjung Emas here today.

The event was officiated by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

Also present were Education Minister Fadhlina Sidek, Johor Menteri Besar Datuk Onn Hafiz Ghazi, Chief Secretary to the Government Tan Sri Shamsul Azri Abu Bakar and Information Department director-general Julina Johan. 

Fahmi said the National Month celebration is not merely symbolic, but a manifestation of shared responsibility in fostering patriotism and strengthening love for the nation.

“It is a time for us to reflect on history, honour past sacrifices and renew our commitment to this beloved nation,” he said.

He also stressed the importance of appreciating the true meaning of independence so that Malaysians can better understand the value of freedom and life in an independent nation.

“This is how we give meaning to life and to the importance of being a free society. Before the Federation of Malaya gained independence, our society was shaped by the unique diversity of its communities,” he said.

Fahmi also emphasised that the spirit of unity, built over the past 68 years through the Federal Constitution, remains the cornerstone of the country’s peace and stability. – July 27, 2025
