Malaysia Day is held on September 16 every year to commemorate the establishment of theMalaysian federation on the same date in 1963. It marked the joining together of Malaya,North Borneo, Sarawak, and Singapore to form Malaysia.
This is the first time in our history that Malaysia Day has been recognized as a public holiday. Should have been the case long time ago as i personally feel its a important day in our history. Its a pity that Singapore is not part of the country anymore but then again, it all happens for a reason ha!
