'#sehatisejiwa', Theme For This Year's Independence Celebration

KUALA LUMPUR, June 6 (Bernama) -- '#sehatisejiwa' was today announced as the theme for this year's Independence or Merdeka Day celebration.

Communications and Multimedia Minister Datuk Seri Ahmad Shabery Cheek said the theme was chosen because it reflected the spirit of solidarity, understanding, togetherness and humanity of all people in the country.

"For example, the earthquake in Sabah and natural disasters like floods which hit the country recently were felt and affected all Malaysians.

"That is why the theme was chosen to symbolise the spirit of solidarity shared by all citizens no matter where they are," he said at the pre-launch of this year's Merdeka celebration at Dataran Merdeka, here, today.

He added that starting this year, the Merdeka Day and Malaysia Day celebrations would no longer be called by their anniversary, but by year.

"It is seen as the principle of equality between the peninsula, Sabah and Sarawak because Malaysia was formed on Sept 16, 1963 and the peninsula achieved independence (from British colonial rule) on Aug 31, 1957," he said.

At the ceremony, Ahmad Shabery also introduced Merdeka Day merchandise to be sold to the public as souvenirs.

The minister also flagged off the #sehatisejiwa Exploration convoy involving two Information Department vehicles, 10 Proton Club vehicles, 20 big bikes and a bonded truck, which will travel across the country to promote this year's Merdeka Day celebration.

TAIPING, Feb 8 (Bernama) -- The hosting of the Malaysian Chinese New Year 2014 Open House shows the recognition of the federal government for the festival which has become a major event at the national level each year, said MCA president Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai.

He said the celebration was most meaningful to the whole Chinese community in this country. "In Malaysia, we celebrate it every year in a jovial and cordial atmosphere not only among the Chinese but also the other communities who also joined in the celebration by visiting each other at the open houses," he said at the Malaysian Chinese New Year Open House at the Larut Matang and Selama District and Land Office Square, here tonight.

Also present at the event were Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak, his wife, Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor and Perak Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Dr Zambry Abdul Kadir and his wife, Datin Seri Saripah Zulkifli.

He said the 1Malaysia spirit which was flourishing and blossoming would facilitate the country in achieving the developed nation status by the year 2020.

Meanwhile, Tourism and Culture Minister Datuk Seri Mohamed Nazri Abdul Aziz said the celebration not only represented an event to greet the Chinese New Year but could also promote the tourism industry particularly in Perak which had the potentials to draw tourists to the country.

"Tourists from the west are always excited to see the celebration in this country besides visiting the scenic locations and doing their shopping," he said.

Meanwhile, the town of Taiping, which is known as the Heritage Town, tonight received thousands of visitors from all walks of life who celebrated the Chinese New Year 2014 Malaysia Open House celebrations.

The festivities which began in the afternoon reached its climax at night with the colourful presentations of cultural shows depicting the plural society true to the slogan of 'Malaysia Truly Asia'.

Present at the celebrations were Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak and his wife Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor, who were accompanied by Mohamed Nazri, Liow, Dr Zambry, as well as various community leaders.

The programme organised by the Tourism and Culture Ministry and the Perak state government in conjunction with Visit Malaysia Year 2014 was aimed at fostering better ties between the leaders and people, highlighting Chinese New Year traditions and as tourist attractions while promoting unity and understanding among the different races.

Also present were participants of the MegaFam from 14 countries - United States of America, Mexico, Italy, Germany, UAE, Hong Kong, Australia, China, Bangladesh, Singapore, Brunei, Indonesia and Thailand.

Canberra Enjoys Malaysian Hospitality

CANBERRA, Oct 1 (Bernama) -- More than 7,000 people attended the Malaysian High Commission's 'Bringing Malaysia to the World' festival here on Sunday, to mark the Centenary of Canberra.

All foreign embassies and high commissions in Canberra opened their doors to the public to enjoy their cultures and cuisines in perfect weather condition.

"We served up our world-famous barbecued satay, roti canai and teh tarik to attract the public from Canberra, Sydney and Melbourne to sample a taste of home," said Malaysia's Acting High Commissioner Eldeen Husaini Mohd Hashim.

The Canberra Times and other online media have billed the Malaysian event as "the best of world culture without the long-haul flight".

Eldeen Husaini said 16 food stalls at the high commission served Malaysian delicacies while cultural shows (Joget Zapin, Sabah Dance, Congkak and Silat) were performed.

Tourism Malaysia, Agriculture Ministry, MIDA, MATRADE, TalentCorp and the Malaysian Student Department displayed booths promoting their products.
Eldeen Husaini said many Australians were amazed at "our Malaysian hospitality and delicious traditional foods".

Visitors were also excited to be able to dress up as 'King and Queen of the Day' and take pictures on a real 'Pelamin' decorated by Malaysian diplomatic officers' spouses here. "The event would not have been successful without great teamwork from all government agencies, students and Malaysians in Canberra," noted Eldeen Husaini.

Malaysia’s new Cabinet

PUTRAJAYA: Prime Minister Najib Razak unveiled a cabinet to drive through his ambitious economic and political transformation agenda on Wednesday.

He said the cabinet included a mix of technocrats and civil society representatives, who bring valuable experience from outside government, as well as experienced ministers and younger faces.

The cabinet also draws on Malaysia's diverse ethnic communities, he said.

New faces include: Paul Low, anti-corruption campaigner and President of Transparency International (Malaysia), will be a Minister in the Prime Minister's Department. P. Waytha Moorthy, human rights activist and Chairman of Hindraf, an NGO that campaigns for equal rights for Malaysian Indians, will be a Deputy Minister in the Prime Minister's Department.

Abdul Wahid Omar, President and CEO of Maybank, one of Southeast Asia's top 5 banks that serves 22 million customers, will be a Minister in the Prime Minister's Department.

Abdul Rahman Dahlan, MP for Kota Belud in Sabah, will lead the new Ministry of Urban Wellbeing, Housing & Local Government.

"The new cabinet will be responsible for delivering transformation in Malaysia and continuing the economic and political reforms that began four years ago.

"The new ministers bring both the measured calm of experience, and the vibrant energy of new ideas; a grounding in anti-corruption and human rights law, and an appreciation for the dynamism of the private sector.

"Over the past months and years, divisions have opened up in Malaysian society. Now it is time for all of us, in government and beyond, to put the bitterness behind us, and work towards national reconciliation and national unity.

"It is in that spirit that I have asked these men and women to serve, not just as ministers, but as a unity Cabinet. Together we will act to bring about national reconciliation, secure Malaysia's economic future, and build a stronger, more harmonious society,” he said.
