UMP associates internalise Rukun Negara as key for unity
Pekan, 26 August 2020 - ‘A pipe shapes flowing water, consensus shapes flowing words’, that is the old adage that Malaysians need to hold in maintaining national harmony and unity.
The government’s effort to sustain the nation’s unity with many races and religions is not an easy task.
Thus, 50 years ago, on 31 August 1970, Rukun Negara was declared to strengthen the unity of the country following the 13 May 1969 incident which had threatened unity among the races in Malaysia.
