Malaysia Day falls on September 16 and commemorates the anniversary of the formation of the Malaysian Federation, which took place on the same date in 1963. The celebration is embedded with tales of sacrifices and freedom. Malaysia Day is also known as ‘Hari Malaysia’. This day was not recognised as an official holiday until 2010. The celebrations of Malaysia Day primarily include national ceremonies that celebrate the strength of Malaysians.
Malaysia Day is celebrated as a day of victory — The constituencies of Malay, Sabah, Sarawak, and Singapore. These nations overcame their struggles and joined a single federation.
It’s also to spread unity — these states came together, and they faced the challenge of setting an example of unity.
