For the first time in my life, I attended 8 functions held in conjunction with the 2008 National Day celebration in various part of PJ over the last two days of August. Although tiring, it was a wonderful and worthy experiences having the opportunity to mingle around with the community members. My presence is to provide morale support and to greet them with a BIG thanks from MBPJ for organising such neighbourhood activities. Their pro activeness in initiating neighbourhood social activities shall be encouraged in order to enhance neighbourliness and foster better relationship and understandings.
I saw creativity and innovation and importantly sustainability in carrying out the activities. Activities such as poem citation, cycling convoy, motorcade parade, patriotic songs singing, flag raising, hibiscus trees planting are commendable. The activities reminded us struggle of our forefather in fighting for independent, patriotic spirit in loving the country and more importantly the need to live in harmony with mutual respect, a feet that is critically required from every citizen regardless their ethnic, culture, religious and social status background. I am glad to see the participation of community members from different background.
And, I pray for our next generation...
