Independence is not just a date in history. It was born from the blood, sweat and tears of the fighters who sacrificed for this country to be free, sovereign and dignified. The former colonizers not only confiscated the produce of the land, but also the dignity, the right to determine the future and the freedom of the people. More worryingly, it also left an impact on thinking so that some lost confidence in the identity of their nation. Therefore, today's generation should appreciate independence and never forget that the freedom we enjoy was redeemed by the sacrifices of our ancestors who were willing to sacrifice for the sake of their beloved country. As we approach seven decades of independence, let's not let racism and division weaken the country. Malaysia will only remain strong if all the people choose unity over differences. The late Tunku Abdul Rahman Putra Al-Haj has laid an important foundation in nation building through the expression, "Bersekutu Bertambah Mutu." It is this spirit that unites the people in the struggle for independence and continues to be Malaysia's strength to this day. We must never allow this country to be slandered by a foreign power, whether through economic pressure, colonialism or efforts to divide the people. National sovereignty must continue to be defended. Let us continue to defend independence, strengthen unity and pass on a peaceful, prosperous and dignified CIVIL Malaysia to future generations. Freedom! 🇲🇾 Malaysia MADANI, Wellbeing Enjoyed #YakinMADANI
Notes
Kemerdekaan bukan sekadar tarikh dalam lipatan sejarah. Ia lahir daripada darah, keringat dan air mata para pejuang yang berkorban agar tanah air ini bebas, berdaulat dan bermaruah. Penjajah terdahulu bukan hanya merampas hasil bumi, tetapi juga maruah, hak menentukan masa depan serta kebebasan rakyat. Lebih membimbangkan, ia turut meninggalkan kesan terhadap pemikiran sehingga ada yang hilang keyakinan terhadap jati diri bangsanya. Justeru, generasi hari ini harus menghargai kemerdekaan dan jangan sesekali melupakan bahawa kebebasan yang kita nikmati ditebus dengan pengorbanan nenek moyang yang sanggup berkorban demi tanah air tercinta. Tatkala menghampiri tujuh dekad kemerdekaan, janganlah kita membiarkan perkauman dan perpecahan melemahkan negara. Malaysia hanya akan terus teguh jika seluruh rakyat memilih perpaduan mengatasi perbezaan. Almarhum Tunku Abdul Rahman Putra Al-Haj telah meletakkan asas penting dalam pembinaan negara melalui ungkapan, “Bersekutu Bertambah Mutu.” Semangat inilah yang menyatukan rakyat dalam perjuangan menuntut kemerdekaan dan terus menjadi kekuatan Malaysia hingga ke hari ini. Jangan sesekali kita mengizinkan negara ini kembali dicatur oleh kuasa asing, sama ada melalui tekanan ekonomi, penjajahan pemikiran atau usaha memecah-belahkan rakyat. Kedaulatan negara mesti terus dipertahankan. Marilah kita terus mempertahankan kemerdekaan, memperkukuh perpaduan dan mewariskan sebuah Malaysia MADANI yang aman, makmur serta bermaruah kepada generasi akan datang. Merdeka! 🇲🇾 Malaysia MADANI, Kesejahteraan Dinikmati #YakinMADANI
