Remembrance Day or "Poppy
Day" is observed on the 11th Hour of the 11th Day
of November each year in some Commonwealth countries. Originated from the
First World War (1914-1918), the auspicious day is to commemorate the Allied
Servicemen, who gave their lives during the war.
Red Poppies are worn during that day, which denotes the Poppies of the Flanders
in France. The central element of Remembrance Day ceremonies is the
minute's silence. Remembrance Day in Borneo will be observed in Labuan
World War II Memorial grounds.
